Book excerpt: Rivers Brighton was a wanderer-having nothing and belonging to no one. Still, by chance, Rivers found herself harboring for a time beneath the roof of the kind-hearted Jolee Gray and her remarkably attractive yet ever-grumbling brother, Paxton. Jolee had taken Rivers in, and Rivers had stayed. Helplessly drawn to Paxton's alluring presence and unable to escape his astonishing hold over her, however, Rivers knew she was in danger of enduring great heartbreak and pain. Paxton appeared to find Rivers no more interesting than a brief cloudburst. Yet the man's spirit seemed to tether some great and devastating storm-a powerful tempest bridled within, waiting for the moment when it could rage full and free, perhaps destroying everything and everyone in its wake-particularly Rivers. Could Rivers capture Paxton's attention long enough to make his heart her own? Or would the storm brewing within him destroy her hopes and dreams of belonging to the only man she had ever loved?

This book was released on 2024-05-15 with total page 805 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a deep and encompassing survey of severe weather in all its forms. An Introduction to Severe Storms and Hazardous Weather is an exciting new textbook that allows students to learn the principles of atmospheric science through the drama, exhilaration, and even tragedy of severe weather. Balancing breadth and depth, Jeffrey B. Halverson adeptly combines a short, accessible introduction to the basic principles of meteorology with detailed coverage on large- and small-scale weather hazards. He draws on specific up-to-date case studies from North America to illustrate the cause of meteorological events including hurricanes, heavy snow and ice, floods, and tornadoes. Unlike existing books on the market, Halverson delves deep into the societal impacts of these events, drawing on examples from agriculture, utility infrastructure, and commercial aviation. Each chapter also features high-quality, customized color artwork by Thomas D. Rabenhorst that helps to enhance and embed learning. Thorough in its scope, and written with an impeccable focus on the science, this book will be an essential resource for introductory undergraduate courses in severe weather, natural hazards, and extreme meteorology. It is also an excellent supplemental textbook for courses on meteorology and atmospheric science.

Download or read book A Family Outbreak of Severe Local Storms written by K. A. Browning and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is a case study of an outbreak of severe local storms that produced several tornadoes and extensive large hail in Oklahoma on 26 May 1963. Several authors have combined to describe the organization, structure, and evolution of these storms from a number of points of view. The storms are analyzed on four different size scales: (1) as products of their large-scale environment, (2) as members of a mesoscale system or family unit, (3) as individual evolving cells, and (4) as tornado and hail factories, with the emphasis on the tornadoes and the hailstones themselves. Data are obtained from conventional synoptic and mesosynoptic networks, visual and photographic observations, surface weather surveys, weather radars, sferics detectors, balloon tracks, radioactivity measurements in precipitation, and hailstone thin sections. Simple models are presented describing the airflow, structure and life cycle of individual severe local storms. (Author)

Book excerpt: Prior to the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the Russian Politburo is using the vast resources of their space program to secretly modify weather in the fertile Ukraine when they realize their illegal harvest boosting operation is about to be discovered by the United Nations. In a desperate move to prevent discovery by the Global Climate Survey System, the Politburo votes to use their weather modifying system to create a series of devastating hurricanes off Cape Canaveral, the launch site of the U.N. Survey System. Their actions start a snowball of events, pitting ex-Navy SEAL Keith Maddox against his nemesis Nilolai Pronin, a ruthless KGB agent with a grudge from his failed post-war mission in Vietnam. The story moves across three continents as Keith, his business partner Marty, retired Admiral Jessel, and a band of his father's World War Two Austrian resistance fighters struggle to expose the Soviet plot before the dangerous chemicals released from the Russian-made storms destroy the Earth's ozone layer. But with the Soviets releasing a final mega-storm out of desperation, and Pronin blocking him at every turn, can Keith and his friends stop the monstrous hurricane before it's too late and the ozone is destroyed?

And when you stir in a diverse group of people and places, sometimes you get a delicious dish, and sometimes you get fireworks. One Christmas Eve, a starving bloodhound appears on their doorstep.
