{"product_id":"9781523677580","title":"Tell Your Own Weather","description":"There are two parts to this weather guide, the second far from guaranteed but hopefully with a laugh or two to make up and grains of wisdom now and then. We have learned a lot from satellites since the time of my 'one-and six' (7 decimal pence) first edition of this weather guide of thirty pages in l953, a period in which the Met Office forecasts have improved beyond measure, focus on individual regions and towns and are ready to give out special warnings. With a bit of luck we can plan for a week ahead, the job done for us, no more worries! Well, not quite! To stay in touch one needs to be constantly making one's own check. There are times when a quick decision is needed to avoid the worst conditions. Best to play for safety when out and about, walking the hills or going to sea: - who knows where one will be in a week or even an hour from now? Sitting somewhere drenched? Or worse? A distant white cloud may prove to be a wolf in sheep's clothing, or if the wind gets up at a critical moment or a fog descends, what then? Did they predict it? Anyone know where we are? As Tommy Cooper used to say, life is magic, 'just like that!' It suddenly happens! And I haven't yet finished with him! - but, yes, 'just like that'... the weather particularly when what occurs is different from the overall picture. Why - one could be submerged in a clammy coastal fog while a mile or two inland it's bright sun and out comes the body cream. This kind of situation is typical of the British spring, with a cold sea. As for longer-range forecasting, get it right once or twice and await laurels. A useful clue is that the longer a particular spell has lasted, the longer it may dominate - up to a point and probably not everywhere. Sages may know and you can be the sage!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eHugh Beswetherick|David Bowen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eCreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eJan 25, 2016\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e112 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003ePaperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e1523677589\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9781523677580\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49142691103025,"sku":"9781523677580","price":13.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/files\/9781523677580__65474_bedcd2e3-2b0b-48bb-8b3d-05881cc97a4c.jpg?v=1716132720","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9781523677580","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
