Seat belts, everyone! Please let this be a normal field trip. With a friend? No way! Cruising on that main street!

You're relaxed and feeling good. Next thing you know... [Music] Such a fine thing to do. [Music]

Come on in and don't be shy. Just to make your day complete, you might get baked into a pie... only...

Step inside! It's a wild... [Music] [Music] Something's too darn hot! Even the thermometer is sweating! Oh, boy!

Whew! I never thought I'd say this, but if we could get Ms. Frizzle to shrink us, we could all fit in that tub.

It is precisely 99 degrees Fahrenheit in here. That's 37 degrees Celsius. At my old school, we measured in metric.

It ain't gonna rain no more, no more. It ain't gonna rain no more. It ain't gonna rain no more, no more. It

ain't gonna rain no more. Ms. Frizzle, don't say that! What good is my rain catcher if it ain't gonna rain

no more? It's so hot! What we need is rain, and lots of it! [Music] Oh, that's what I love about the weather!

[Music] It's always changing. Where does she get her clothes? You know what we really need?

A thunderstorm! A thunderstorm! Oh, you mean with lightning and thunder? What else? A thunderstorm would

clear out all this muddy stuff. I've changed my mind. I... I don't mind sweating, really.

I've heard it's, um, good for you. Wouldn't it be neat if I could make a thunderstorm?

It'd be Ralphie to the rescue! But I could never do that. It's too big a job for a kid. But it's a

perfect job for a weatherman! [Music] Oh, um, sorry, Ms. Frizzle. How would you like to join our

Discussion about weather. Sure, weather is my specialty. Since when? Weather is how all the air around us is right now. Yeah, horrible.

Since you're so hot on the weather, Ralphie, tell us what makes the weather cool and clear one day and hot and humid the

Ralphie, you've been reading too many superhero comic books.

Besides, it's water that makes the weather. You know, water as in rain. Uh, according to my research, Carlos,

it's air that makes the weather. Wind is moving air.

No, no, no. Let's get this straight: heat makes the weather, as in the heat

All of you are right! You have just named three ingredients: air, water, and heat that, when stirred

together, make weather. And who do you think does all the stirring? Weatherman! He can even make thunderstorms!

Come on, Ralphie. Weatherman! The heat must be getting to you.

Oh yeah? What do you know? Plenty! Oh yeah. [Music]

I'm afraid I must interrupt this lively debate. It's time for our field trip.

Oh, excellent suggestion, Arnold! It is, Liz. Why don't you go warm up the bus?

Oh, and you could go with her, Ralphie, to let us know when everything is ready.

Me? But I'm not finished telling you about Weatherman!

What's to tell, Ralphie? Just because you don't believe in

Weatherman doesn't mean he doesn't exist!

Ralphie thinks he knows everything! I mean, Weatherman! Give me a break! Oh well,

Keisha, as I always say, keep an open mind, and you never know who will walk in. Single file, please.

[Music] Ah, I think I'll set up my rain catch here, just in case it rains while we're

Gone. [Music] Hey, look at that! I wonder what all that stuff is for. I hope the air conditioning still works.

Well done! Faster than lightning, cooler than rain, louder than thunder, man! This is it! I've always wanted to do a

superhero comic book. I'll call it "The Adventures of Weatherman Tim." If Ralphie's Weatherman, then I'm the

Queen of England! Your Majesty! For my first adventure, I, Weatherman, will show you how I make

weather. I will even make a thunderstorm! Won't I, Miss Frizzle?

Weatherman? Did you hear that? Miss Frizzle called him Weatherman. Now, the heat's getting to her. First, we

shall bravely go where no bus has gone before and explore one of weather's major ingredients: air! Air? Excuse me,

but anybody can explore air; it's all over the place. You think I mean plain old sitting around doing nothing here?

I'm talking moving air! Moving air makes weather! I shake up... boom! Sorry, Ralphie. The only moving air in here is the hot air

coming from your mouth! Then I, Weatherman, will bravely go and explore moving air! And I, for one, shall bravely follow!

Glass. [Music] All right, if you say so. Hey, Ralphie, do you have any idea what

I am Weatherman, of course I know what I'm doing! Right now, what am I doing? Oh, what the

heck! [Music] I think that was the wrong button. Maybe if I do this... [Music] Excellent choice, Ralphie!

[Music] [Applause] Really, Ralphie? What did you do to us? The Adventures of Weatherman, Chapter One:

Gone with the wind! I feel like it's better. Maybe you're not Weatherman, but Featherman!

Call moving air! I didn't mean to blow them away, Ms. Frizzle! Honest! Good work, weatherman, Ms. Frizzle!

Level with me. Am I really a weatherman? You have three ingredients to make weather: wind, heat, and water. It's up to you to stir them together as...

I always say, 'Take chances, make mistakes, hmm, get messy!' Oh, exactly! Only put some oomph into it, weatherman!

You already know a lot about the weather.

That's right! I, weatherman, have moved there to make wind!

So what are you waiting for? [Music] Oh! [Music] I think I should have stayed home today.

Isn't it great? You can see for a mile! Look how sunny it is over there, and look...

at that humongous cloud! Too bad it's nowhere near my rain catcher. It looks like a thundercloud. Good thing...

it's nowhere near us. According to my research, weather is different in different places, right? Right. How come? Uh, because... because...

Wanda, different combinations of wind, water, and heat make different kinds of weather, right, weatherman? I couldn't have said it...

better myself! [Music] [Music] Excellent demonstration of winds! Yeah, how'd you do it, Ralphie?

Well, Tim, it's as easy as... um... Hey, who's this Ralphie you keep talking about? You're Ralphie? You are not...

weatherman? Ralphie, weatherman! What's it matter? We were all blown away by the experience, right?

So Ralphie can turn a fan on and off. Big deal! I'm still waiting for that thunderstorm...

you promised! The world isn't filled with big fans, you know. So what really makes the wind? I'll answer that...

question, Ralphie, but you're not gonna get out of making that thunderstorm! What really makes the wind is a...

A combination of air and heat; for example, the sun heats the earth, the earth heats the air, and this warmer air

rises. When the warm air rises, more air has to take its place, so cooler air comes in, and this movement of

air creates wind. Very good, Keisha. Right now, how about that thunderstorm? Okay, one thunderstorm coming right up.

[Music] Um, just a little experiment. Oh, Weatherman just made an updraft! He did, of course I did!

Weatherman just made an updraft! I salute myself! I salute my updraft! What's an updraft? An updraft is warm air

You mean like, keep rising out of a toaster? That's a very good example of a very

small one, Phoebe. But if an updraft is going to make any difference to the weather, it has to be pretty big, right?

[Music] Can you make clouds, too? Of course, Wanda! After all, you need clouds for a thunderstorm.

Oh, Wanda! Dorothy, I can't believe you're buying into this! You need to add water! I learned that in

my old school. Weatherman, thank you, Phoebe. Yes, clouds are made of water. Weathermen will now make a cloud. I give

up! Now, what's happening to us, Arnold? This is ridiculous! Thanks to Weatherman, you guys are all wet, Chickasha!

Time to break out the watercolors! We're changing again! Oh, Weatherman has turned us from water into tiny little water droplets! Keep

together, class! This is fun! Clouds are made up of millions of tiny, tiny little water droplets.

We really made a cloud! Thanks to Weatherman! I knew I should have brought a sweater; it's cold up here.

[Music] [Applause] Oh, we're cold! Into ice crystals! Oh, I love this part! We're unique! We're

Beautiful! We're also falling. Good observation, Carlos. When ice crystals in a cloud grow and stick together, they get heavy. But now we're getting

Mountain weather! Man-made rain! You are not a weatherman!

trip! [Music] That was fantastic! Come on, weatherman, let's do it again!

a little cloud, a little rain, but you still haven't made the thunderstorm you promised. Weathermen will not disappoint you!

Absolutely not! More wind, more water! Make a giant updraft! Add water! [Music]

Ah, Ralphie, make a cloud! Freeze the water! [Music] Oh, what's the use? I'll never

Never say never, weatherman! [Applause] Oh, isn't this thrilling, class? We are inside a thunderstorm!
