What formulas should we know for Meteorology? Seems mostly theory and extrapolation from charts/graphs as far as I can tell...not encountered any formulas yet!

Like do you know the names or even what the use of the formula was for?

I can't remember much, but there was degree days which I knew, converting F to C, and some more, but mostly looking at and analyzing charts and info.

Just wondering? Has anybody else experienced a meteorology test in stations? If so, how was it like, and how much harder/easier is it than a regular test? We just had one at state, and there were many little stations with 2-4 problems at each. This made it nearly impossible to split up, making the time limit really hard to meet. To test makers often do stations tests for pure study events?

I have never seen a station test for any of my study events. It's too complicated, and I feel like stations should be exclusive for certain events.

That's what I was thinking, and the rules don't say anything about stations, like some event rules say.

I agree. I have only participated in a Meteorology station test once, and it was horrible.

How many stations?

I can't quite remember. Maybe like 12 or something.
