1. What causes temperature change other then what season it is?

2. What causes wind currents?

3. What causes bad weather

4. How come there is sometimes more water in the air than usual?

5. How come being closer to the Sun (higher altitude) is colder?

Thanks for your help and time,

I am sorry that this sounded like homework to you, but this is for my Science Project. My question was 'will wind, humidity, and/or outside weather effect the temperature.' Before doing the actual experiment I am trying to get some background research on my variables. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. Thanks again for your help and time,

Hi asonmay,

This is an interesting topic! I would suggest looking up 'meteorology' in your favorite search engine. You can also look up wind, humidity, and temperature, and you will find a lot of resources. This: http://ww2010.atmos.uiuc.edu/%28Gh%29/g ... /home.rxml looks like a great resource, but it might be a little advanced for you (I'm not sure whether you're in 6th grade or 8th grade!).

Here is another site that has resources for students: http://library.thinkquest.org/C0112425/main.htm .

Take a look and see if these sites can help you answer your questions!
