Book description
Instant Weather Forecasting has been a perennial bestseller since it
was first published nearly 40 years ago. A brilliant concept, its
winning formula of 24 colour photographs of cloud formations and their
accompanying explanatory text enables the reader to read the sky, pick
up the clues, and predict what the weather will do. With a revised and
updated text, along with new colour photographs and diagrams, this
bestselling gem of a book will be invaluable to anyone participating in
outdoor activities, from farming, gardening and walking to riding,
golfing, flying, sailing and fishing - and of course holidaymakers.

Birdwatch Alan Watts, one-time professional meteorologist, has spent
considerable time studying wind changes and short-term alterations in
the weather. This, combined with his enthusiasm for sailing, has enabled
him to assist people to read the weather from the signs in the sky. He
is also the author of Instant Wind Forecasting and The Weather Handbook
both published by Adlard Coles Nautical.
