The British public's preoccupation with our ever-changing weather, together with El Nino and the climactic effect of global warming, means that this is a subject that constantly attracts attention. In a new book that forms part of Collins Natural History's successful How to Identify series, the weather is broken down into easy-to-follow sections. Once the basic forms and mechanisms are understood it is then possible to forecast the weather, particularly in your locality. The following topics will be included: how to identify cloud types and other atmospheric phenomena; how clouds are formed and how rain is produced; weather systems and how they move and develop; how weather differs in different regions; how to interpret satellite images; and how to forecast weather.
