Overview

You've already learned a lot about weather, but the most important thing you know about it now, is that there is much, much more to know. Go deeper!

Investiture Achievement Connection: This Honor is related to the Investiture Achievement requirements for WILDERNESS EXPLORER Nature Study which require (as one of two options) completing a project very similar to Requirement 9 of this Honor. Therefore this Honor is a popular choice for the Skill Level 2 or 3 Nature Honor required for WILDERNESS EXPLORER.

The Challenging Part

The most challenging requirement of this honor is probably this:

9. Keep a daily weather chart for three weeks. Include the following:

a. Amount of precipitation (Secure this either from your own home-made device or from official records.)

b. Barometer reading

c. Cloud formation

d. High and low temperature

e. Wind speed and direction

f. Weather forecasts and comparison to what really happened
