Publisher's Synopsis
Instant Storm Forecasting is
an invaluable reference for anyone pursuing outdoor activities. Using
dramatic photographs of cloud formations, helpful tables and practical
explanations, Alan Watts equips the reader with the tools to assess the
chances of being caught out in a storm, and judge how severe that storm
might be. He explains how strong winds build up, how thunder and hail
stones are formed and what causes hurricanes, tornadoes, typhoons and
waterspouts. This comprehensive little book makes fascinating reading
as well as being an essential guide for anyone about to encounter the
elements.
