Weather influences our lives every day, yet many of the processes that shape it remain little understood. This accessible introduction explains how the atmosphere works, including cloud formation, rain, hail, snow, high- and low-pressure systems and global circulation patterns. Participants will also learn how to read weather charts with greater confidence and explore the science behind climate change and its long-term implications. Suitable for anyone curious about weather, science and the natural world.
