No other weather writer uses the practical hands-on approach of Alan Watts, whose reputation for explaining complicated meteorological situations in an understandable way for the average reader is second to none.

Almost every time we go to sea, we spend time looking at its color photos of different types of clouds and comparing them to the clouds we see above us. Then we carefully read Watts's analysis of what the clouds portend." Lin Pardey, SAIL "Another gem that's a dog-eared favorite." Coastal Cruising
