Question 6
6.
In which city (Atlanta, New York, or Wilmington) would you expect to see the most water moving into the atmosphere during the day? Why? (5 pts)
Claim: The city that would have the most water moving during the day is ________________.
Evidence use both sentence starters:
In the weather data, it shows __________________________
On the map, it shows __________________________
Reasoning:
________________ City would have the most water in the atmosphere during the day because ________________

Question 8
8.
The next week the temperature in New York, NY rises (increased) to 85° F. Would you expect more or less water to move into the atmosphere in New York? Why?
A) More water would evaporate because lower temperatures cause more evaporation
B) More water would evaporate because higher temperatures cause more evaporation
