Explains the causes of meteorological elements —wind, rain, snow, clouds, fog, storms and clear skies— and how mountains and elevated terrain modify them.

The work is recommended by the Mountain Leader Training Board; includes bibliographic references and an index, and the text is in English.
For hikers and climbers who want to understand the weather in mountain areas; useful for both beginners and veterans.
