Summary |
A handy reference to meteorology and to the types of weather phenomena that one might encounter at home or in nature. It includes an introduction to the basics of meteorology-explaining the aspects of the atmosphere that dictate how weather works. From there, the field guide moves in to look at a variety of individual weather topics: cloud formation (and cloud-type identification), various forms of precipitation, and much more. The author goes on to discuss government-issued watches and warnings, and weather safety. |
