🔍 Key Concepts

• local vs. forecasted conditions – forecasts can be wrong or change quickly • how rapid changes in wind, temperature, clouds, or pressure often signal approaching bad weather • which option is least likely to indicate deteriorating conditions in the short term

💭 Think About

• Think about which changes would most quickly warn you that the weather might worsen, even if the forecast says it will stay good. • For each choice, ask: does this usually mean a front, storm, or squall is near, or can it occur without serious weather following? • Consider your own experience at sea: which of these changes would make you most concerned and prompt you to take precautions?

✅ Before You Answer

• For each option, decide if it is generally an early warning of bad weather. • Ask whether the change is typically sudden or more gradual in normal fair-weather conditions. • Identify which of the four is least directly linked to an approaching storm or front.
