Every time you go outside, you experience the weather. It may be good, it may be bad, and it may be so bad that it ruins all your plans for the day. Have you ever wondered why the weather changes? Why are the changes sometimes expected and sometimes completely unexpected? Why is the weather forecast on the TV, radio or internet sometimes right and sometimes wrong? Is it possible that the forecast is correct but we don't know how to read it? Can you predict the weather correctly yourself? You will find the answers in this book.
This book is full of exciting facts about the weather and climates in different parts of the world, with some incredible examples of weather records and extreme weather events. You will learn how the earth's climate has changed over millions of years, with ice ages following warm periods. How do we know if the global warming today is natural or man-made? THis book is also about people. You will read about the lives of some great people who observed the weather, recorded it, and learned to predict it. They studied clouds and winds, they invented measuring instruments, they sailed to new unwelcoming lands to build weather stations there, they learned to use mathematics to predict weather. Through the lives of those people, you will follow the path the science called meteorology has made from ancient Mayan's' predictions to modern AI-created forecasts. You will find out how this science not only informs us but also saves lives. Finally, you will take a look into the future. Will future technology allow people to make perfect forecasts that can never be wrong?
