Answer 1

Satellite Image Interpretation: A weather forecaster analyzes satellite imagery and makes forecasts based off of what he or she sees.

Surface Map and Upper Air Map Interpretation: A weather forecaster examines charts both the surface and upper levels (300 mb, 500 mb, 700 mb, 850 mb, etc.) and forecasts weather based off of the information given.

Computer Modeling: Forecast models predict many things such as precipitation, temperature, jet stream position, and more. A weather forecaster uses that information to his or her advantage.
