2. What information does AI look at to guess where a tornado might form?

   1. Social media posts
   2. Video game scores
   3. Restaurant menus
   4. Radar images and clouds

3. How often does AI update its predictions about where a storm is heading?

   1. Every 10 years
   2. Only on weekends
   3. Once a year
   4. Every minute

4. Where do storm chasers typically view the AI-generated weather maps while working?

   1. On billboards along highways
   2. In video games
   3. In underground bunkers
   4. On tablets inside their trucks

5. What happens when AI determines it is no longer safe to stay in an area?

   1. AI warns the chasers to leave the area right away
   2. AI calls the chasers' parents to tell them to come home
   3. AI creates a force field to protect the truck
   4. AI turns off the storm's lights so it can't see

   1. Storm chasers have to wake up very early
   2. Storm chasers work while it is raining outside
   3. Storm chasers must use complicated math
   4. Storm chasers drive toward tornadoes, which can cause injury or death

   1. Music that plays when it rains
   2. Games that let you design your own weather
   3. Future forecasts that update as conditions change
   4. Recipes for rainy days

8. What does it mean that AI helps storm chasers stay 'one safe step ahead'?

   1. AI gives chasers superpowers to control weather
   2. AI makes chasers run faster than the storm
   3. AI lets chasers see the future perfectly without error
   4. AI helps chasers know where to go before the storm gets there

    2. Frequent updates help chasers decide what to eat for lunch
    3. Storms never move, so predictions do not need updating
    4. Storms can change direction quickly, so predictions must stay current

12. What would happen if storm chasers tried to follow a tornado without any AI help?

    1. They would be perfectly safe without any danger
    2. They would need less training
    3. They would have a much higher risk of being caught in the storm
    4. They would find it easier to see the tornado

13. What is the main goal of using AI in storm chasing?

    1. To make storm chasing into a competitive sport
    2. To help humans study dangerous storms while staying as safe as possible
    3. To replace all human storm chasers with robots
    4. To completely stop all tornadoes from happening

14. What makes AI weather predictions different from regular weather forecasts?

    1. AI can only predict weather once per year
    2. AI uses a crystal ball to see the future
    3. AI asks animals what the weather will be
    4. AI can analyze huge amounts of data very quickly

15. What do storm chasers do when AI tells them to get out of an area?
