Read the passage below.

A meteorological (weather) satellite helps us to forecast weather accurately.

This type of satellite can detect changes in the temperature, wind and
pressure in the atmosphere. The imformation received from this satellite can
help us in forecasting the place and time of the occurance of typoons, floods,
cyclones as well as high ang low tides. This satellite is able to take
photographs such as clouds, ice, and snow and send them through signals to
meteorological station on earth. With this facility, an early warning can be
givin and steps can be taken to overcome or avoid possible disasters.

If you were an contruction engineer , discuss the importance of weather forecast.
