Guide to Weather

Firefly's Guide to Weather is a practical guide to observing, measuring and understanding weather. Illustrated throughout using colour photography, satellite imagery, maps and charts, it explains this fascinating subject at both the global and local level.

Written for all readers, this book explains how weather phenomena actually develop and how to predict them. The book also explores the validity of weather folklore, such as red sky at night, sailor's delight; red sky in the morning, sailor take warning, and many others. There is also a country-by-country climate guide — perfect for today's global traveller — with concise assessments and graphs showing annual temperatures, precipitation, and sun times.
