Mister Barometer
Mister Barometer
what do you do?
I measure the pressure
of air coming through.
If pressure drops low
we get clouds, rain or snow.
In warm tropic seas,
a cyclone might grow.
When pressure goes higher,
air’s cooler and dryer.
A fine day to fly
in a clear blue sky!
what do you do?
I measure the pressure
of air coming through.
If pressure drops low
we get clouds, rain or snow.
In warm tropic seas,
a cyclone might grow.
When pressure goes higher,
air’s cooler and dryer.
A fine day to fly
in a clear blue sky!
