Here is my new weekly weather quiz question. What is a “PIBAL?”

_______________
The Upper Level High Pressure Ridge (“Arch” shape) has moved to the east and will be followed by an Upper Level Low Pressure Trough (“U” shape). The graphics for days 1-3  show low pressure off the California coast that’s moving northward along the Oregon coast while dragging a cold front behind it. The graphics for days 3-7    Thursday through Monday show active weather with complex frontal systems active over the Pacific Ocean moving toward the Pacific Northwest.

Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is the “Photosphere?” Here is the correct answer. The Photosphere is the intensely bright portion of the sun visible to the unaided eye; the “surface” of the sun. Reaching temperatures estimated at about 11,000 degrees Fahrenheit, it is the portion of the sun’s atmosphere which emits continuous electromagnetic radiation.

Here is my weekly weather quiz question for the last time. What is the “Photosphere?” Here is the correct answer. The Photosphere is the intensely bright portion of the sun visible to the unaided eye; the “surface” of the sun. Reaching temperatures estimated at about 11,000 degrees Fahrenheit, it is the portion of the sun’s atmosphere which emits continuous electromagnetic radiation.
