Work Description

"Students can use this unique guide to discover not only what causes particular weather events such as avalanches and droughts but also to learn about the worst storms in history, as well as how specific elements have impacted literature and folklore, how weather people predict certain weather patterns, and how people around the world cope with inclement conditions.

Hundreds of meteorological events, expository facts, and fascinating anecdotes are presented to demonstrate the diverse methods people take in coping with or adjusting to the weather. Facts about such events as the worst tornadoes in history, as well as climographs, depicting the weather patterns in different parts of the world, help to provide the reader with a wealth of unusual information pertaining to the elements."--BOOK JACKET.
