Review
'This is the enlarged and updated third edition of a well-known book by a much respected meteorologist. There are some neat diagrams, with excellent photographs really relating to the text. It enables people, having got the general forecast, to make the best choice of routes. If you want to learn about mountain weather, as any sensible hill-walker or climber should, then this is as good a book as you'll find.' Irish Mountain Log / Winter 2006

About the Author
David Pedgley OBE was formerly a weather observer, forecaster and instructor in the Meteorological Office. He was one-time Vice President of the Royal Meteorological Society. A hillwalker for over 40 years, he started the Society's field courses on mountain weather. This is the 3rd edition of the book, which forms a comprehensive handbook to this important subject.
