Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Even with today's enormous technological breakthroughs, meteorology remains an inexact science. Now available in paperback, this all-color book provides readers with an understanding of basic weather systems. A straightforward, non-scientific text is complemented by spectacular photography and color diagrams of the phenomena described, providing a solid understanding of basic principles and forecasts, and even allowing the reader to make predictions of wind, rain, and temperature with some rationale.

Author notes provided by Syndetics

Brian Cosgrove's expertise in meteorology comes from his days in the Royal Air Force and from his love for flying and gliding. He lives in England.
