I was captivated by the weather at an early age. This book describes some of the unique weather-related experiences I've had during my lifetime and how they helped pique my interest in this subject.. Most notable were incidents involving severe weather like thunderstorms, snowstorms and hurricanes. Highlighting my experiences has been my amateur meteorologist volunteer effort as a Tampa Bay (Fl.) area Weather Spotter. An analysis of more than 613,000 pieces of rainfall data recorded during the past seventeen years has led to some interesting conclusions about southwest Florida weather trends. Culminating my writing is a brief discussion about climate change.
For those individuals having a special interest in weather, my book should be a pleasant read.
