Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

It's the definitive bible on storm chasing, updated in 2008! The Storm Chasing Handbook examines the hobby of storm chasing - the people, the philosophy, and the equipment. Using key findings from the past four decades of scientific literature, readers learn the inner workings of severe weather and dabble with the fundamentals of forecasting techniques, blended with wisdom from the author's own experiences. From target area and storm type prediction to successful, safe navigation, the Storm Chasing Handbook has it covered. A large appendix features a Great Plains travel guide covering local history, culture, meteorology, and geology for nearly 100 chase routes, dining recommendations, broadcast radio and NOAA weather maps, an almanac of past chase seasons, special telephone numbers for reporting severe weather, and a list of recommended videos, books, websites, and references. If you're heading into the field or you just have an interest in severe weather forecasting, Storm Chasing Handbook is the book you can't afford to be without.
