Killer tornadoes. Catastrophic hurricanesLethal heat waves. Across the United States and around the world, extreme weather events bring an unending torrent of death and destruction. One indispensable tool consistently offers the ability to help reduce the impact of these calamities: the weather forecast. For centuries, humans have sought to foretell natures next moves, from ancient farmers to trailblazers of the Space Age, who brought computers and satellites to bear on the problem.

In a remarkable tale of innovation and perseverance, veteran journalist Thomas EWeber takes readers into the world of the pioneers creating these game-changing forecasts. From storm chasers racing to hunt twisters and physicists unraveling the secrets of the atmosphere, from scientists studying how people react to warnings to humanitarian groups rushing to avert famines, Weber goes behind the scenes to show how predictions keep getting better.
He explains whats needed to turn these forecasts into actions that prevent tragedies and how anyone can become more weather literate to protect themselves in emergencies. Cloud Warriors will change the way you think about treacherous weatherand the power of being able to see it coming.
