"The perfect Christmas present!" LORRAINE KELLY

"You'll love this book. In fact, I confidently forecast it" RICHARD MADELEY

Most of us talk about the weather every day - it shapes our lives, our cities, even our history - but how much do we really know about it?

In Come Rain or Shine, award-winning meteorologist Laura Tobin lifts the lid on the fascinating science behind the forecast, revealing a world richer and more surprising than you'd ever believe.

Blending compelling anecdotes, folklore, and first-hand insights, Laura unpacks how the weather really works - from wind and rain to cloud, fog, and sea - and shows you how to spot its clues for yourself. Along the way, you'll discover:

☀ Why raindrops are bigger than they used to be
☀ Why the sea is warmest in September and chilliest in March
☀ Why bad weather is at the heart of conflicts worldwide
☀ How rainbows form and what they mean
☀ How your location affects YOUR weather... and much more.

Inquisitive, engaging and full of unforgettable facts, this book will quite simply change how you how you experience the world - come rain or shine!
