Local weather phenomena are described, and localized forecasting rules are given, for each of seven geographical areas of the Mediterranean Basin. As drawn for this study, the areas boundaries generally define the areas of occurrence of the various weather conditions and events that are found from one location to another across the region. For the operational forecaster's ease of reference, each text section addresses a particular geographical area and provides the following information for that area: an overview of local geography and seasonal, weather patterns; discussions of weather phenomena common to the area; and a series of forecasting rules cross-referenced to the phenomena discussed. Area locator maps, charts of typical weather conditions and events, satellite images, and rules-index tables are provided to enhance the operational usefulness of the information for the on-site user.

'Mediterranean Weather Handbook for Sailors' is an indispensable reference providing a general understanding of the various phenomena concurring to determine weather in the Mediterranean as well as useful forecasting aids. It is written for sailors, not meteorologists; theory is kept to a minimum, while every effort is made to provide clear interpretative tools that are helpful in understanding actual weather and forecasting. Roberto Ritossa is a meteorology expert and this handbook is a result of many years research on Mediterranean weather patterns. This second edition includes details of new and changed websites that offer meteorological services. Throughout the graphics have been improved and for some sections additional illustrations have been added. Roberto Ritossa has produced an excellent weather text book for those who choose to sail in the Mediterranean. Although it claims to be 'written for sailors, not meteorologists' there is more than enough essential theory to satisfy the keenest of amateur meteorologists. I would certainly buy a copy if I were to ever plan to return to the Mediterranean, as a sailor. - IG, Cruising.
