Meterology books, dvds, website recommendations?

[seanfoster]

Can anyone give me any recommendations for simple meterology guides?

Ideally I'd like to get hold of something visual, (dvd, software etc).

There are shelves yards long on 'weather' stuff. Just about everyone who sails/moboats gets into met/weather at some time, for it has such a huge influence on our time on the water and we have zilch influence over it.

I can recommend Simon Keeling's 'Weather Why's' DVD...

SK posts a regular weekend forecast on here, as well as warning and commenting on the occasional 'event'. You could do a lot worse than get his DVD.

Isn't it time you got Weather Whys? Over 2-hours of short videos explaining how the weather works.

I'll have a look at that, I think I've seen it in PBO or Sailing Today.
