This book provides details about four tools used by meteorologists--barometer, radar, computer model, and thermometer--that are the basics for evaluating and predicting weather. "Fast Facts" enhance the scant main text. The many photographs include smiling meteorologists in addition to some diagrams and pictures of the tools. A matching game and short quiz are appended. Glos.
