How to study this deck

Weather is a constant conversation topic in English. Learn adjectives (sunny, cloudy, windy), phenomena (thunder, hurricane, rainbow) and temperature words (warm, cool, freezing). Practice with "It is..." and "What is the weather like?". Read the forecast in English every day to reinforce it.

The trickiest words

hot / warm: hot is very high temperature and warm is pleasant. With food, hot can mean spicy.
cool: it means pleasantly cold in weather and also "great": "That is cool!".
forecast: it is the prediction of weather. As a verb, it is also "forecast".

Examples in context

It is sunny outside today.
The mountains are snowy in winter.
The weather is cool in the fall.
They heard thunder in the distance.
A light drizzle fell all afternoon.
The temperature dropped at night.
The heavy rain caused a flood.
