Did you know that water vapor is invisible and actually lighter than dry air? What separates a tropical storm from a winter blizzard? And what exactly is El Nįo? Elliot Rappaport, a professional captain of traditional sailing ships, has spent three decades at sea, where understanding weather is crucial to the safety of vessels and their crews. In Reading the Glass, he offers a sailor's-eye view of the moving parts of our atmosphere and unveils the larger patterns it holds: global winds, storms, air masses, jet streams, and the longer arc of our climate."-- Publisher.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Business, Science & Technology 551.5246 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kailua Public Library Adult Nonfiction 551.5246 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 551.5246 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Adult Nonfiction 551.5246 Ra Checked In Add Copy to MyList
