Weather Wise

Weather Wise is a highly practical, lively, and very accessible guide to weather phenomena for anyone who enjoys the outdoors. Suitable for sailors, walkers, climbers, skiers, fishermen, golfers and vacationers, it explains how forthcoming weather will affect them, as well as how to predict what is coming and assess how severe it will be.

No other weather writer uses the practical hands-on approach of Alan Watts, whose reputation for explaining complicated meteorological situations in an understandable way for the average reader is second to none. Packed with practical tips, hints and fact panels, Weather Wise covers the seasons, clouds, heat and cold, rain, changeable weather, showery weather, wind, thunder, fog and mist, sea weather, hill and mountain weather, and hurricanes and tornadoes.
