Meteorology B

[Hosj]

ReBobville and I did meteorology in B division, and it was one of our favorite events. We decided to write a test this year. I just uploaded it to the test exchange.

I tried to put a variety of questions on the test, and I am pretty sure that everything is correct. Let me know what you think of the test and if you think something might be wrong!

I hope you enjoy the test!

I had only one complaint. You sited Hurricane Wilma as the lowest pressure ever recorded in a hurricane, at 882 milibars, but supertypoon tip reached 870 milibars. Was the intention that this was a trick question in that Tip is not a "hurricane" but a typhoon?

Oh, that was you guys. It was pretty funny, I thought she would DQ you for a minute.

Then we got into a fight about whose handwriting was worse. We both started raising our vioces. I was like "If we don't calm down, we'll get Dq'ed!!"

Has anyone done the Severe Storms topic before?

Kinda. I did it back in 6th grade, but only as JV. Though I have studied it extensively elsewhere.

Too bad I'm in ninth grade next year.

You are still allowed to compete in Division B if you're in 9th grade.
