I totally agree!!
That's the thing, most of the tests that I've taken on this is about other random stuff that isn't even on the sheet!!
I NEED TESTS!!!!
POST THEM!

Chill, SSANationalTeam1. (Chill, not chill). First of all, I have not met a single fair and square procter yet. In fact, my meteorology test asked us to find the air pressure, temperature, dew point, cloudiness, wind speed, and wind direction from a diagram which we did not know how to interpret at the time (now we do) when the ruled clearly stated that the 2009 Meteorology topic would emphasize climate and climate change, not weather. So be ready for anything and studying outside of the rules is also a really good idea.

Secondly, the reason why I say chill is that we don't post meteorology tests on the meteorology topic. Meteorology test can be found in the 2009 Test Exchange section of the Event Wiki. Also, a good rule of thumb is to ask nicely and to not shout (WHICH CAPS LOCK, EXCLAMATION POINTS, AND AN EVIL FACE HAS AN EFFECT OF DOING!!!!!!!! ).

Well, Good luck with your competition

Wow. Most of my events that I have taken at competitions have stuck to the rules well. MY regional meteorology test was GREAT, and luckily the guy who wrote our regional test I believe is writing my state event

that depends where u are
but in the US i guess around august ish and that would be because of the distace from the sun and stuff

It's sometime in July for the Northern Hemisphere, and sometime in January for the Southern Hemisphere. It has to do with insolation, I believe.

oo never say distance to the sun. Actually our summer is when we are FARTHEST from teh sun.
