| to find out what the weather will be like. |
| It might be a nice clear day with no clouds in the sky. |
| The sun might be shining. |
| It could be a cloudy day. |
| Sometimes, cloudy days are just dull. |
| On some cloudy days, it begins to rain or snow. |
| Some days are rainy. |

| Once in a while, the weatherman says there will be hail. |
| Hail stones are hard cold pellets of ice that fall from the sky. |
| Sometimes, the weatherman will say that there will be snow flurries. |
| Sometimes, there is just a light dusting of snow. |

| You need a hat, coat, mittens and boots on a very cold day. |
| Sometimes, the weather forecast is wrong. |
| The weatherman might say that it will be a sunny day, but then the clouds come in and it rains. |
