Synopsis:
Packed with enlightening facts, practical diagrams, and clear explanations about weather phenomena and why they form
The Weather Book is a delightful miscellany of everything remotely meteorological. It is jam-packed with enlightening facts, practical diagrams, and clear explanations about weather phenomena and why they form. It includes weather systems—electrical storms, heat waves, hail, and cyclones—weather tales—from raining frogs in Sussex to ball lightning and sand storms in the East Midlands—weather forecasts—how the Met Office gathers information and makes predictions—and old-school weather wisdom. All of this plus an array of fascinating facts, quotes, and anecdotes make up this charming gift book. This title helps to refresh your memory from long forgotten school lessons and extend your knowledge on one of the world's most talked about subjects.
