Question 1323Navigation General
70% to passWhich general weather conditions should you expect to find in a low pressure system?
The correct answer is D) Precipitation and cloudiness. Low pressure systems are typically associated with cloudy, wet weather conditions. As air moves into a low pressure system, it is forced to rise, which leads to the formation of clouds and precipitation. This can include rain, snow, or other forms of precipitation. Additionally, the cloudy conditions created by the rising air are a key characteristic of low pressure systems. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the general weather conditions found in a low pressure system. A) describes the weather in a high pressure system, B) does not fully capture the cloudiness, and C) is the opposite of the conditions in a low pressure system.
