    [synopsis] => Produced in association with the Met Office, the world's premier weather forecasting bureau, Extraordinary Weather unearths astonishing photographs and compelling satellite imagery that reveals the otherworldly, wayward and often ambiguous nature of the weather. From the beautiful snow rollers that can form on icy rooftops to the dramatic lightshow of volcanic lightning, these powerful images-accompanied by commentary from the award-winning Richard Hamblyn, inform and explain the science behind  the most extraordinary weather phenomena ever seen.

Extraordinary Weather presents a beautiful and dramatic visual exhibition of the perpetually changing sky, bringing us closer to the natural world. Discover the world's altering climate and its affects all around us, explore weather events on a larger scale through powerful satellite imagery, and learn of unusual and out of the ordinary weather phenomena considered unbelievable until you have seen them with your own eyes.

Acclaimed author Richard Hamblyn celebrates both impressive natural and manmade weather wonders, from frost feathers created by rime ice, to wingtip vortices formed, by accelerating aircraft. The six themed chapters of the book explore storms and tempests, ice and snow, heat and drought, atmospherics, strange phenomena and manmade weather revealed through some of the most visually stunning and intriguing photographs and satellite images seen yet.
