Title: Basic Essentials Weather Forecasting, 2nd (Basic Essentials Series) by Michael Hodgson ISBN: 0-7627-0478-0 Publisher: Globe Pequot Pub. Date: 01 May, 1999 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $7.95 |
Average Customer Rating: 5 (2 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Practical, Informative
Comment: "Basic Essentials: Weather Forecasting" is a practical guide to weather as it relates to its most important aspect to humans: what its going to do next. It is a nice blend of conveying "weather 101" without losing sight of what it might be telling us. Chpt 1, for example, follows up telling us what causes storms, lighting and tornadoes with some practical safety advice. Similarly, in Chpt 2, we learn what the different types of clouds are and then how to tell when the weather is getting better or worse by reading cloud formations.
There is a hidden gem in Chpt 5 (subtitled: Semireliable Forecasting from Legends and Lore). In it, 2 dozen weather "wives' tales" of various usefulness are examined.
Overall, this is ideal for campers, hikers, boaters, amateur naturalists and scouts. Also recommended, Instant Weather Forecasting by Alan Watts.
