Book excerpt: The ultimate guide to the ultimate storms, Hurricane Watch is a fascinating blend of science and history from one of the world's foremost meteorologists and an award-winning science journalist. This in-depth look at these awe-inspiring acts of nature covers everything from the earliest efforts by seafarers at predicting storms to the way satellite imaging is revolutionizing hurricane forecasting. It reveals the latest information on hurricanes: their effects on ocean waves, the causes of the variable wind speeds in different parts of the storm, and the origins of the super-cooled shafts of water that vent at high altitudes. Hurricane Watch is a compelling history of man's relationship with the deadliest storms on earth. Includes: - The story of the nineteenth-century Cuban Jesuit whose success at predicting the great cyclones was considered almost mystical. - A new look at Isaac Cline, whose infamous failure to predict the Galveston Hurricane left him obsessed with the devastating effects of storm surge. - The story of the Hurricane Hunters, including the first man ever to deliberately fly into a hurricane. - A complete account of how computer modeling has changed hurricane tracking. - A history of Project Stormfury: the only significant, organized effort to reduce the damaging strength of severe hurricanes. - A unique firsthand account of Hurricane Andrew by both authors, who were at the National Hurricane Center when Andrew struck. - A listing of the deadliest storms in history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PREDICTING STORMS - The Adventure Begins Third Edition 2024. BY ROBERT ELLIS The full colour book shows ordinary people how to predict a storm long before it is even visible to radar or satellite. Many lives can be saved by using the simple rules explained in the book. As many as 500,000 people worldwide may die in large storms each year. Traditional weather forecasts can currently only give around 13 minutes' lead time for tornadoes spawned by supercell thunderstorms. The Tornado Early Warning Rule published in this book gives at least 5 hours early warning of a deadly tornado from its rigid straight-line signature on a barograph. Your barometer will give you at least 24 hours early warning of an approaching hurricane making landfall. Third Edition features a breakthrough in storm early warning: Severe Thunderstorm Early Warning Rule, page 27. Book has the first comprehensive compilation of rules for storms. Know when you will be safe from storms. Predicting Storms covers practical information such as whether you can walk to work, or if there will be a storm in your area within the next hour or two. All types of storms are covered in the book: Severe Thunderstorms, tornadic supercell thunderstorms, cyclones, hurricanes, typhoons, extratropical cyclones, tropical storms, tornadoes, bush firestorms, fire tornadoes, weather bombs, windstorms, dust storms, and snowstorms. Rules apply to storms on land and at sea, so sea and surf are another important part of the book. Find out why we can expect stronger storms in a warmer world. Whether you are a general reader, a surfer, a weather watcher, a storm-spotter, or a storm-chaser, Predicting Storms will give you the tools to predict all storms confidently. Author is a scientist and storm expert who has been referred to in recent years in the media as a storm chaser.
