Blending meteorological history with the history of scientific cartography, this charts the phenomenon of lake-effect snow and explores the societal impacts of extreme weather. Along the way, it introduces readers to natural philosophers who gradually identified this distinctive weather pattern, to tales of communities adapting to notoriously disruptive storms, and to some of the snowiest regions of the US.
