Physics in the Weather?

Homework Statement

It isn't a crazy physics problem or anything I just have to list some of the things that are related to physics in weather forecasting. THe actual question is "what are some things weathermen need to know regarding physics?" I looked around and I couldn't find any information specific enough and when I did I only found a couple things like measuring rain and temperature and what not. I was just wondering if anyone could give me a more detailed list! THanks!
