Go to www.theweathernetwork.com. Look up your hometown. Now try and find the average temperatures and precipitations for the different months. If your town doesn't have them then choose a larger city that is nearby. Answer the following.  1. What is the average high temperature for your town in July? What is the average high temperature in January?  2. What is the average low for both of those months?  3. What does average high and average low mean?  4. What is the average precipitation for each of these two months?  5. Find the month that has the most precipitation. Do you think it is mostly snow or rain? Why?  6. 1 cm of snow is equal to how much rain? (You may have to research that!)  7. Given what you've learned about the WEATHER in your community, what do you think the type of climate is where you live?
