Instruments like thermometer, rain measuring funnels were once considered to be vital in daily weather forecast. With the advancement of science, the satellites sent by different countries especially to record the changing weather conditions and to send it to recording weather stations are more accurate than it was in the past. However thunderstorms for a short of time within a small radius is still unpredictable.

HOW THESE WEAHER FORECAST HELPS US e.g. (flood,earthquake, volcanoes)?
Weather refers to the temporary conditions of the atmosphere such as the temperature, rainfall or wind, and weather changes from time to time. Climate refers to the variety of weather conditions normally experienced on the average and it changes from place to place.
If your 6th grader is studying the weather, how about this idea from the Boy Scout merit badge book: Make one of the following instruments: wind vane, anemometer, rain gauge, hygrometer. The library or a good encyclopedia should have directions for making one of these. Keep a daily weather log for 1 week using information from this instrument as well as from other sources such as local radio and television stations or NOAA Weather Radio, and Internet sources (with parent's permission). Record the following information at the same time every day: wind direction and speed, temperature, precipitation, and types of clouds. Be sure to make a note of any morning dew or frost. In the log, also list the weather forecasts from radio or television at the same time each day and show how the weather really turned out.
‡ Meteorologists have markedly increased the accuracy of their forecasts in the last twenty years. Advances in radar and satellite technology have helped to improve daily forecasts, making a four-day forecast today better than a two-day forecast twenty years ago.
