I'm very new to this whole weather thing. Just got my first weather
station, and as you can imagine it's a cheap wireless one :-)

Now as a newbie - can someone recommend a book or two with good reliable
weather info. Simple ones - like how to read the weather - pressure and
it's effect and meaning, you (hopefully) get my drift.

And before anyone asks - yes I've googled - but there is so much conflicting
info out there I'd thought about asking the knowledgeable people on this
group.

In addition to material already suggested, there is quite a lot of material
online now. Here is one such course Developed by the Department of
Atmospheric Sciences (DAS) at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.
I'm not sure the level will be quite right but still worth looking at.
