Abstract
This work is essentially for the uninitiated in weather study. The author presupposes no technical knowledge, and has throughout avoided mathematics and formuæ. A rough survey is taken of elementary meteorology in a way which must commend itself to all who take an interest in ordinary weather changes. In the opening sentences the author appeals to boy or man; he might also as well appeal to the other sex, who are now taking a keen interest in all branches of science.
