Description: An energetic and electrifying narrative about all things weather by one of today's rising meteorological stars. Get in we re going storm - chasing! Imagine a very cool weather nerd has just pulled up to you and yelled this out the window of his custom - built armored storm - chasing truck. The wind is whipping around he's munching on Wawa it's all very chaotic yet as you look into his grinning face you feel the greatest surge of adrenaline you have ever felt in your life. Hallelujah: your cavalry is here! Welcome to the brilliance of Looking Up the lively new book from rising meteorology star Matthew Cappucci. He's a meteorologist for the Washington Post and you might think of him as Doogie Howser meets Bill Paxton from Twister with a dash of Leonardo Di Caprio from Catch Me If You Can. A self - proclaimed weather nerd at the age of fourteen he talked his way into delivering a presentation on waterspouts at the American Meteorological Society's annual broadcast conference by fudging his age on the application and created his own major on weather science while an undergrad at Harvard. Combining reportage and accessible science with personal storytelling and infectious enthusiasm Looking Up is a riveting ride through the state of our weather and a touching story about parents and mentors helping a budding scientist achieve his improbable dreams. Throughout readers get a tutorial on the basics of weather science and the impact of the climate. As our country's leaders sound the alarm on climate change few people have as close a view to how serious the situation actually is than those whose job is to follow the weather which is the daily dose of climate we interact with and experience every day. The weather affects every aspect of our lives (even our art) as well as our future. The way we think about it requires a whole - life overhaul. Rain or shine tropical storm or twister Cappucci is here to help us begin the process. So get in his storm - chasing truck already will ya?
