Can a weather map and weather symbols be used to forecast the weather accurately?

That is what meteorologists use to show us what is going on with the weather and what weather to expect. The map and symbols that you see on the television are only a very small part of how they come up with a forecast. There are weather models and different weather data that they use to actually come up with the forecast and make the map you see on television.


Who is the person who tells the you the weather?

Those people are commonly known as meteorologists. (AKA: the "weather-man") :)Hope that helps!


How do meteorologists combine data from weather radar and weather satellites to gather information about the atmosphere?

The National Weather Service makes most of the national maps you see at the Hydrometeorological Prediction Center in Camp Springs, MD. Meteorologists there analyze observed data from both surface observation stations and weather baloons to determine existing weather patterns. These maps are then sent across the country for use to assist forecasters across the nation. The surface map, (usually the one you see on TV) comes primarily from ground observations, and they draw lines of equal pressure (isobars) across the map to get a general idea of the basic weather pattern because the pressure values give clues as to what type of weather is occuring. You can also draw lines of equal temperature (isotherms) and equal dewpoint (isodrosotherms) to get a better picture of what is happening. Forecast maps, a part of the new National Digital Forecast Database are produced at each of the 122 National Weather Service local Weather Forecast Offices. There meteorologists use the latest observed data and computer models to produce a 7 day forecast.

How tell if a weather forecasters is trained meteorologists?

Assuming you are talking about TV weather forecasters, you can go to the website of their station and their educational background should be listed. If the degree is in anything other than Meteorology or Atmospheric Science then I wouldn't consider them a meteorologist.

Where did we get the pictures of weather systems we see on television weather reports?

They are created by weather forecasters using a lot of data sources. There are weather stations that collect data and satellites that do so too. All of this data is put together and then they can work out where the weather systems are and the areas of pressure, what level the pressure is and so on. When they have this data they can create the maps and pictures by hand or computer.

Does a meteo television presenter need to know science?

Weather forecasting does indeed require a good knowledge of science and an associated degree, such as a B.S. in meteorology. Although weather forecasts are sometimes wrong, it's generally because forecasters are working with unpredictable and powerful natural forces.
