A meteorologist is any person or scientist who studies meteorology (the study of earth's weather). Meteorologists forecast weather using prior weather records and atmospheric monitoring instruments such as weather stations, radar, satellites, and on occasion, Weather Balloons. Although some popular meteorologists (like weather forecasters on local news networks) speculate on Earth ever-changing climate, Meteorologists should not be confused with Climatologists who attempt predict future climate.

Usage

 The meteorologist forecasted that the Atmospheric River would bring the West Coast some rainy weather this week
