Weatherwise

The changing and mercurial weather can be a good friend or formidable foe. This series investigates weather conditions around the world--including both the positive and negative aspects. Wind can lead to powerful storms, and even the warm, welcoming sunshine can cause damaging droughts. Each book clearly explains the physical characteristics and effects of each weather type, and contains an interactive project so budding meteorologists can learn how to measure and record the local weather. Side panels with fascinating but true weather facts about snow, rain, sunshine, and wind are also included.
