From the man whose job is to teach forecasters HOW to forecast! Pete Chaston, formerly a Meteorologist in Charge at the National Weather Service. Some of this book is technical, and some is a fairly easy read. Either way, once you've read it, you will be a better forecaster than most on-air television meteorologists right off the bat. A whole section devoted to forecasting including thunderstorms and the "magic chart" for snowfall amounts. Warm Advection, and vorticity are discussed, along with severe storm signatures in satellite photographs and radar. A "must have" if you are serious about the weather. I recommend reading Weather Basics first then this.

I wish this book existed when I was young. It is everything, and I mean everything anyone interested in weather should know from the start. Comprehensive, easy to read, and yet good enough to be a textbook from middle school through college courses. This is the first book I would recommend for ANYONE interested in weather as a hobby period. Written by expert forecasters Pete Chaston, and Joseph Balsama, a long-time science educator. A Perfect collaboration.

The history, the paths, the reasons, the satellite photos, you name it. This is THE most comprehensive books limited to the topic of solely Hurricanes! There is even discussion of how to forecast the remains of Tropical Systems once they move inland. All in all, a book I had better read cover to cover myself before June!

![]() Thunderstorms, Tornadoes and Hail! Thunderstorms, Tornadoes and Hail by Peter R. Chaston Like Hurricanes! this book is dedicated to solely one type of weather phenomena: Severe local storms! Most of it is written in laymen's terms, and yet there is extremely comprehensive chart discussion that is crucial to excellent severe storm forecasting. In fact, if you master this book and apply its concepts to charts on the Internet you will be leagues ahead of most Television meteorologists. Invaluable addition to Weather Maps. ;
