Your Mom - Part Two
 
You told your mom that the weather would stay cold while she was out gathering pine cones, and you were right! Good job! Because she thought that the weather would stay cold, she wore a pair of long pants and a good coat. The coat was good protection when the squirrels attacked her for taking their pine cones. 

When you made your forecast, you were facing north. The wind was hitting you in the face, so the wind was coming from the north. This typically means that the  weather will be cool and dry. 

If the wind was coming from the south, you shouldn't trust it. Wind that crosses a body of water takes or loses heat from the water, and won't be the real temperature of the air.
