Weather Fronts/Systems

So before I start this, i'm going to describe the different kinds of front types. There are two different words used within meteorology to describe weather around a frontal zone.

Cold fronts ; Cold fronts can produce sharper changes in weather and move up to twice as quickly as warm fronts, since cold air is denser than warm air and rapidly replaces the warm air preceding the boundary.

Warm fronts; Warm fronts are at the leading edge of warm air mass, which is located on the equator,  and lie within low pressure than cold fronts. A warm front moves more slowly than the cold front which usually follows because cold air is denser and harder to remove from the Earth's surface.

So predicting weather with the weather fronts shows the different air masses, hot & cold, dry & wet, it shows the different masses that go around.

Stories of Global Warming

Site where i read about global warming - http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/science/topics/globalwarming/index.html

Pictures; 

I dont know if this is real or not but it just shows how the glaciers are melting, and we're the cause of this, we could easily prevent this situation.

In this picture it just shows how we're polluting our own enviornment. People complain but really we're the main reason this is happening through everyday things we do, driving, work, everything.

In this picture, it shows the polar bear just chillin' on the ice glacier where its just water in the background, nothing else. It shows that the glaciers are slowly starting to melt leading to most animals in the artic, etc to die, or get eaten by the aquatic attackers.

In this picture, I find it rather funny, george bush says hes here for the people, but is selfish in the end, not really a good leader, I'm glad theirs someone new to lead the country.

Meteorology and Weather Prediction

Difference ;
Satellite imagery- you will see cloud cover and the cloud types, but you won't see what's going on below them.
Radar- does exactly this, sending radio signals, that return if there is any precipitation in the area, so radar shows you where the precipitation is.

Weather Forecasts

2.http://weather.ca.weatherbug.com/Canada/Saskatoon-weather/local-forecast/7-day-forecast.html

3.ww.weatherforecastmap.com/canada/saskatoon

Their all different predictions because not everyone has the same thoughts on how its gonna be, also the weather patterns change a lot sometimes so one person could have the weather from a few days before, adn the other simply just a day before.
