The Complete Idiot's Guide to Weather (2nd Edition)
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The Weather Channel. Global Climatic Warming. El Nio. The clich, "How's the weather? only scratches the surface of America's obsession with everyday storms as well as with hurricanes, thunder and lightning, tornadoes, and other fascinating weather-related phenomena (not to mention televised forecasts). This fun book offers readers the principles of meteorology by exploring the causes and changing patterns of the weather; how events in space affect the Earths weather; and by providing reasons for our increasingly wild weather. Features an overview of the history of the weather from the Ice Age, to the Great Blizzard of the 1930s, to todays worries about global warming. Also contains the latest information on computer forecasting and how, despite hi-tech computers and satellites, forecasters are never 100 percent right. Packed with illustrations and photographs.
