So you want to predict the weather? We can do that!

We are all visual learners. So, just like all of the IntuitivScience books, you will start by learning to use simple, intuitive diagrams to represent three basic theories.

  • You are probably already familiar with the particle theory of matter.
  • From there, you will learn to use the concept of an air parcel, to predict and explain the behaviour of air.
  • Finally, you will build upon these two theories together to describe common weather events.

Using pictorial representations of these three theories, you will learn how to calculate atmospheric pressure, energy, temperature, mass and other quantities related to weather. As you become more adept at drawing these specialized pictures of the earth's atmosphere, you will learn how to use these theoretical descriptions to explain and predict the weather around you.
