Everyone talks about the weather, but how many really understand how it actually functions. How do temperature and pressure influence the planet’s weather systems? How is weather different from climate?
Storm Dunlop (yes, that is his given name) takes up these and a number of other related questions in his new Weather; A Very Short Introduction.
Quite frankly, I’m particularly excited to get started reading this book as, growing up on the north Oregon coast in a commercial fishing family as I did, weather was a significant factor in the daily activities of my family’s life and I’ve long been very interested in learning more about how it works.
