Product Description: The weather—it’s there every day. Sun, wind and rain are basic to life. But sometimes the weather is more than just "there"—it becomes violent. Monsoons winds, for example, bring the world’s heaviest rain. During a monsoon, mountain rivers burst their banks and the lowlands are swamped with floodwater. Lightning is another powerful force—the most powerful on Earth. Learn why lightning must neutralize itself by hitting a tall object or the ground. And huddle in a storm shelter with one terrified Oklahoma City family as a deadly tornado sweeps through their town. And because there is nothing we can do about weather like this but try to predict it and prepare for it, learn how storm trackers are using the latest technology to save lives.
