Praise for the first edition of
The Rough Guide to Weather
“Brisk and authoritative for all weather consumers,
whether sun seeker or tornado chaser.”
New Scientist
“May in Greece should be warm, rather than hot, with temperatures
in the mid-60s and just a slim chance of rain. How do I know? My
bible on the shelf above my desk is
The Rough Guide to Weather.”
David Wickers, Good Housekeeping
“ A terrific book … lovely photographs and
amazingly complete world weather pages.”
Davis Instruments Weather Club
“Far outshines similar books … I strongly recommend this book.”
The Weather Doctor (website)
“It’s packed – no, crammed – with everything from cloud types to
rainbow formation to weather summaries for cities around the world.”
Dayton News
“A book to dip into and enjoy, again and again.”
Good Book Guide
“Excellent.”
