Predicting Storms: The Adventure Begins

As many as 500,000 people worldwide may die in large storms each year.

Traditional weather forecasts can currently only give around 13 minutes’ lead time for tornadoes spawned by supercell thunderstorms. The Tornado Early Warning Rule presented for the first time in this book is ground-breaking, as you can now have at least 3 hours’ early warning about a tornadic supercell thunderstorm. The extra warning time will save many lives.

Robert Ellis’ book shows ordinary people how to predict a storm long before it is even visible to radar or satellite. Many lives can be saved by using the simple rules explained in the book.

Predicting Storms covers practical information such as whether you can walk to work, or if there will be a storm or rain in your area within the next hour or two.

All types of storms are covered in the book: Severe Thunderstorms, tornadic supercell thunderstorms, cyclones, hurricanes, typhoons, extratropical cyclones, tropical storms, tornadoes, firestorms, weather bombs, windstorms, dust storms, and snowstorms.

Whether you are a general reader, a surfer, a weather watcher, a storm-spotter, or a storm-chaser, Predicting Storms will give you the tools to predict all storms confidently.
