Question

Which information would a scientist be least likely to receive from a weather satellite?
data about the path of an active storm
data about cloud coverage
data about how many storms will occur in a season
data about precipitation

Answer 1

A scientist would be least likely to receive **data about how many storms will occur in a season** from a weather satellite. Weather satellites primarily provide real-time observations and data related to current atmospheric conditions, such as cloud coverage, precipitation, and the path of active storms. However, they do not directly forecast future occurrences of storms or the total number of storms in a given season, as such predictions typically rely on climate models and historical data rather than satellite observations alone.
