DOWNLOAD EBOOKEvery spring the Central United States awakens from its winter slumber and begins the tumultuous transition to summer. The battle ground known as Tornado Alley comes to life as moisture, heat and wind come together to spawn the most intense storms on the planet. These storms traverse the landscape with hail, tornadoes, and lightning. As storm chasers, our mission is to capture these dynamic systems and share our experiences with you. Severe weather and the processes by which these mammoth storms develop are to this day an inexact science. However, the research that has been done on these storms, and experience in the field, has led to amazing developments in meteorology. How does a severe storm form? What are the signs a tornado may be imminent? What makes one severe storm different from another severe storm? The Anatomy of Severe Weather will visually take you through the process of severe weather using in depth explanations and high resolution photography. * A comprehensive visual guide to severe weather including thunderstorms, supercells, tornadoes, and lightning.* Illustrated throughout with easy to understand diagrams over high resolution photography and Doppler high radar images. * Covers an array of topics such as climatology, weather history, and storm chasing.
