Synopsis

This book delves into the art of predicting the weather from the subtle changes in nature that have been observed for centuries, going back as far as ancient times. The author has collated a vast collection of these observations alongside philosophical insights and scientific data. The book is organised into three sections: observations derived from plants and animals, those indicated by the atmosphere, earth, seasons, and finally techniques gleaned from the use of barometers, hygrometers, rain gauges, and thermometers. This book will prove invaluable to those with an interest in meteorology, seasoned farmers or budding shepherds alike, and anyone looking to attune themselves with the natural world.
