weather tracking
Watching atmospheric conditions
Weather tracking is the systematic monitoring and recording of atmospheric conditions—temperature, precipitation, wind, barometric pressure—over time.
It ranges from personal observation I've been tracking the weather for our camping trip to sophisticated meteorological systems using satellites, radar, and sensor networks.
Weather tracking enables forecasting, climate research, and planning for agriculture, aviation, and disaster preparedness.
