Observations

Making dust and weather observations will mean taking measurements using the scientific equipment and using your special Dust Detective skills to observe what's happening around you.

Wind speed can be estimate by looking how the trees, smoke or flags behave. Use the modified Beaufort scale below to estimate what the wind speed is.
