How the weather changes from one season to the next has an important effect on most people's lives. This illustrated series of books describes and explains the type of weather associated with each season of the year. International in outlook, the books cover the important characteristics of weather in different part of the world as well as general weather topics as appropriate to each season. Topical environmental issues which affect climate are discussed, and there is a series of practical experiments that children can do in relation to measuring or observing the weather. Spring is a changeable season, when the short, cold days of winter turn into long, warm summer days. This book shows how the coming of spring affects the weather in different parts of the world, especially in the temperate regions. The book shows how the wind is created and where local spring winds blow. The formation of clouds and showers are described, and we are shown the beautiful effects caused by the sea and rain together as rainbows. There is a section which shows weather fronts and their sequence of cloud and rain, and also how to predict and forecast spring weather.
Finally the book shows the effect of warm spring weather on the Earth's ozone layer and what we can do to stop its destruction.
