Meteorology Today

really good book

Good textbook. Helped convey the teachers lessons and provided great insight into real world scenarios. If you want to use diagrams from your book for studying and personal notes, then I highly suggest the loose leaf model.

Textbook was nice value and service through Amazon was great. Ended up not needing it that much for class, but the "buy back" program through Amazon is great and easy.

I needed this book for my weax class. I like this book and has good colored pictures and is easy to follow.

Nicely written and presented, colorful diagrams, lots of technical information. However, I also have the 2003 7th edition and it has several detailed and interesting Appendices that are removed from this current version: Beaufort Wind Scales; Humidity and Dew-Point Tables (Psychromatic Tables); Weather Forecast Chart; Changing GMT and UTC to Local Time; Standard Atmosphere (detailed temp and pressure conditions by altitude); Hurricane-Tracking Chart; a larger Adiabatic Chart than the one found in the text of the recent edition; Koppen's Climatic Classification System; I don't know how many of these deletions are at the direction of the authors vs. the publisher, but for a text/reference book that cost as much as this one does, there is no excuse for removing this material from a leading textbook, in my opinion. I'd give 3 stars except for the excellently written and presented chapters.

Very interesting I enjoyed it

Very informative, good book

All the course material I needed for my class.
