The world is full of great books, magazine articles, and websites about the weather. Here are some of the things that we are reading right now:
- We’re looking forward to reading The Invention of Air by Steven Johnson. It’s about the life of Joseph Priestly, the man who discovered oxygen.
- I really enjoyed Locust, by Jeff Lockwood (who has been a guest on the program in the past).
- The Invention of Clouds by Richard Hamblyn tells the story about how Luke Howard developed the system that is still used today to describe clouds. This book is a must-read for anyone who has a favorite kind of cloud and knows the scientific term for it!

I read and liked the invention of air. I was spouting off about the need for acceptance and appreciation of scientific cynicism for weeks.
