HYPOTHESIS

The greater the wind speed, the lower the air temperature.

HYPOTHESIS ANALYSIS

ACCEPTED

Average graph supports our trend

CHALLENGES FACED

Precision Weather variables keep changing

Accuracy No time to double check results

REFLECTIONS

Importance of taking temperature from the same height

Importance of conducting a fair test

Importance of getting results based on hypothesis

FURTHER QUESTIONS

What causes the different weather variables to change?

Is there a way to predict what data will be present for the different elements of weather ?
