Basic weather questions? Help as soon as possible please?!?

1. What way does the wind travel (counter clockwise/clockwise) in low pressure areas?

1. What way does the wind travel (counter clockwise/clockwise) in low pressure areas?
Cyclonically - the same direction as the earth rotates when viewed from above. That is counter-clockwise in the NH and clockwise in the SH.

2. When there is a cold front, what precipitation is often accompanied? What about a warm front?
Cold front: Heavy rain often in the form of showers.
Warm front: Rain and drizzle, not always heavy, but it can be. Certainly not showery.

3. What are the changes in temperature and wind directions associated with the warm front and what about the cold fronts?
Warm front: Slight increase in temperature. Wind veers slightly in the NH, backs in the SH.
Cold front: Marked decrease in temperature. Wind markedly veers and usually decreases in the NH, backs in the SH.

4. What changes in temperature, atmospheric pressure, and wind direction are associated with the passing of a cold front?
Temperature: See A to Q3 above.
Pressure: Rises.

5. Can yesterday's weather map help you predict tomorrow's weather? How so?
Yes, to a limited extent. By advecting (moving) the various weather features with the wind, and their past movement.

6. Before weather satellites existed, weather forecasts for cities on the west coast were not as reliable as those for cities in the Midwest. Can you explain this difference to me?
Since weather features generally move from west to east, the weather on the west coast had already been observed so some characteristics were known before they moved into the Midwest and eastern states.
For the western locations there were only a few ships to report conditions "upstream".
Weather satellites changed all that and weather features could be more accurately diagnosed over the ocean before they make landfall on the west coast.
