The Earth was created to be the dwelling place of man. It is a complex world and its weather patterns affect our lives every day. Whether you live near the equator, a polar region, or somewhere in between, knowledge of the weather is important. The Weather Book will teach you: Why our exact distance from the sun allows life on earth; how the weather on the other side of the earth affects you; how clouds form and how to identify the different types; what the difference is between a cold and warm front; why you can often see lightning long before you can hear thunder; how to build your own weather station; how to survive in dangerous weather; what the greenhouse effect and the ozone hole are; what Noah's flood and the Ice Age have in common; how weatherpersons forecast hurricans and tornadoes; how to read a weather map; what our responsibility is to the environment.--Back cover.
