Description
Reeds Cloud Handbook is a quick-access, easy-to-use guide to identifying cloud types and understanding what each type can tell us about the weather and how it will change.
This concise pocket reference is perfect for those who enjoy spending time outdoors and want a better grasp of weather forecasting. While it primarily targets sailors, it's invaluable for anyone who goes walking, fishing, cycling, and other outdoor activities. This portable handbook provides essential information about both common and unusual cloud types, detailing how they form and the weather patterns associated with each.
Fully illustrated with colour photography and clear diagrams, this cloud identification guide features sections on different weather patterns and cloud formation. It categorises clouds by their location in the sky and includes related features and various forms of fog. Each entry offers guidance on identifying different cloud types and their effects, explaining how these clouds are connected to wind and rain patterns.
