The third edition of this bestselling book explains how to combine professional weather forecasts with information from websites and apps and self-assessment of the signs in the sky to arrive at a local forecast of coming weather.
Alan Watts, one-time professional meteorologist, has spent considerable time studying wind changes and short-term alterations in the weather. This, combined with his enthusiasm for sailing which began with the sea scouts, led to his first book. He is also the author of the bestselling Instant Weather Forecasting and Instant Wind Forecasting both published by Adlard Coles Nautical.
The Weather Handbook is written in a conversational style that
helps break down the jargon. And there are helpful summaries ...
The handbook would be great to keep onboard, not necessarily as a
reference, but as some easy and educational reading.

The goal of the book is to teach readers to look at the sky,
