"…Still there is something new in the heavens. We have always a resource in the skies. They are constantly turning a new page to view.…and the inquiring mind may always read a new truth." - Henry David Thoreau (1817-62)
A new, updated edition and definitive guide to clouds published in association with the Met Office, the UK’s national weather service founded in 1854. This fascinating, revised edition of a bestselling title now includes twelve newly recognised cloud forms. Illustrated with colour photographs from around the world, the expert text explores and explains clouds in all their forms – from low, medium and high to accessory clouds and even man-made clouds. Plus a guide to optical phenomena and effects. Learn to identify different clouds, understand how they change and what that means for likely weather patterns.

It seems very good and interesting.
I have started it but it will be better in the summer, when we have different cloud formations.
