Book Reviews of Storm Chasing Handbook
Book Review: A fantastic book! One of my favorites!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just wrote a review for another one of Mr. Vasquez's books. I have three of them (Weather Forecasting Handbook, Weather Map Handbook, and Storm Chasing Handbook). All three of them are absolutely fantastic.
Tim Vasquez is very well-known and respected in the meteorological community, and with good reason. No one disputes him knowledge. We all know people though, who are geniuses at what they do, yet who are very dry and boring when they attempt to teach their subject. Vasquez is definitely not one of those sorts. Nor is he the kind who tries so hard to liven up a subject that he waters down the information with silliness. He presents his information in a solidly informative way that reads very well without coming across as dry.
This book in particular, is ideal for those with any interest in storm chasing. In fact, I would call it a "must-have". It gives a very no-nonsense description of how to approach various types of storms. It has a terrific chapter on forecasting (not nearly as in-depth as his Forecasting Handbook of course, but still extremely informative and detailed). It has tons of other information, but you're wasting time! Stop reading reviews, and just buy his book! It's well worth it.
