    Having had a look at the forum list I am wondering what would be the best weather book for me (someone to buy for me)

    I thinking a A level standard with maps with explantion of how you interpret all the charts on line.

    I can go out and buy one with pretty pictures or how the weather was etc but seems harder to find one thats aimed above beginners but below professional standard

    It would be worth trawling second hand bookshops, or the net, for a copy of 'Climate and The British Scene by Gordon Manley.

    It's old but it's still entirely relevant, and written by someone with a deep knowledge of, and love for, the subject matter.

    Yes i can vouch for that, i bought Climate and the British Scene, back in March 1971 (The third impression April 1970, the last time it was updated as far as i know) I still read it today, looking at the cover price, it cost me 12/- 60p, back then.
