Description

Whether it is used as an icebreaker in conversation or as the subject of serious inquiry, "the weather" is one of the few subjects that everyone talks about. This title offers a look at how meteorologists and forecasters predict the weather. It shows that weather forecasts are also shaped by social and cultural factors inside local offices.
