Question

on a cold, cloudy day, the local weather forecaster predicts that a high pressure system will be moving into the area in the next 24 hours. which weather conditions will this system most likely bring to the area? hot snowy sunny stormy

Explanation:

High - pressure systems are associated with sinking air. Sinking air inhibits cloud formation and precipitation. So, when a high - pressure system moves into an area, it typically brings clear or sunny weather. A high - pressure system doesn't usually bring hot weather (as it can be cold or warm depending on other factors but the key is clear skies), snowy weather (snow is more associated with specific low - pressure or frontal systems), or stormy weather (storms are associated with low - pressure systems or fronts with rising air).

Answer:

C. sunny (assuming the options are labeled A: hot, B: snowy, C: sunny, D: stormy)
