A significant, widespread occurrence of freezing rain is referred to as an ________. This complex network of rising, falling, and sliding air masses, many of which are being heated at ground level and dropping water at cloud level, is exactly what makes weather so hard to predict. A pressure gradient can be analyzed in the vertical dimension, with the prevailing trend being a downward gradient (toward the Earth's surface). When these data points are combined, scientists can extrapolate or interpolate to estimate air pressure at almost any location in the atmosphere.
