“Not fair.” Wendi was rather angry. “You promised we could go to the climbing park.”
“But, it is going to rain, and the climbing park is outdoors.” Mum shook her head.
Wendi looked out of the window. “But it isn’t raining, just clouds.”
“The weather lady says so, and she knows, rain in the afternoon,” Mum said.
“The weather lady must get it wrong,” Wendi complained in a low voice, but suddenly, the rain started. “Oh.” Wendi was surprised, looking up at the sky.
“We’ll go to the climbing park another day.” Mum watched the rain.
“How does the weather lady know about the weather?” Wendi asked.
“Well, she has got a weather station, I think.” Mum was not sure.
“Grandpa might know. I’ll ask him tomorrow,” Wendi said.
“We can build a little weather station in the garden if you like, Wendi,” Grandpa explained. “You’ll need a wind vane (风向标) to see how the wind is blowing, and we can make it by ourselves. And we also need to prepare a rain gauge (雨量计) to measure how much rain has fallen. And, I’ve got a good thermometer (温度计) for outdoors.”
“A thermometer ... what is that?” Wendi asked.
Grandpa laughed. “A thermometer measures the temperature.”
“Thermometer.” Wendi was pleased with her new word.
“And last of all, we need a barometer (气压计). That’s a big word, too, Wendi,” Grandpa explained. “A barometer tells us what the air pressure is. I’ve got one, too.”
“But what is air pressure?” Wendi asked.
“Well, if the air pressure changes, the weather will change,” Grandpa answered.
When everything was ready, Grandpa and Wendi got down to business, and soon a little garden weather station came into being.
Grandpa gave Wendi a list and said, “You have to keep a list of all the wind, rain and temperature changes. That’s when you’ll see how the weather is changing. And then you really will be a weathergirl.”
Rainy, Windy, Sunny, Snowy, Hot, Cold, Cloudy, Stormy, Very Windy ... Wendi painted many cards for all the things a weathergirl has to say.
Hearing the news, all Wendi’s friends visited her garden weather station.
