Brian Batey "Thanks Tim for your quick response (we like that at FedEx) about our Professional Versions! As we're a 24/7 operation, we're look forward to augmenting our present weather system with Digital Atmosphere." — Mel Bradley, FedEx Operations "Wow. Your books are incredibly technical and useful. I consider myself a very amateur weather watcher and feel that I am already ahead of the curve. Thank you." — Terry W. Taylor "The NEXRAD support is truly awesome and easy to use – and the ‘other’ feature just really tops it off. This is about my sixth email tonight – the other five being to other spotters in the area telling them they just have to download Digital Atmosphere and give it a serious going over." — David Cashion "I'm really looking forward to the next phase of Digital Atmosphere Workstation. I'm sure it will be as excellent as all your other products." — Simon Keeling "I run and manage a number of festival type events and Digital Atmosphere is able to produce charts that I can use for normal weather forecasting with a fair degree of accuracy and in particular wind speed and direction that is crucial to many of events." — Robert Connolly, GI7IVX "The archive data arrived today. WOW! What an amazing set of data! Thanks again for all the extras that you included as well!" — Bryan Bollman, IA "We do run GEMPAK and all the Unidata software also, but your package has numerous advantages, the biggest being Windows." — Anonymous "I am very impressed with what you have done. I have already shown several people at work your site. I plan on talking to our MIC [Meteorologist In Charge] soon to see if we can get Digital Atmosphere in the office to complement/supplement AWIPS." — Ken Simosko, NWS, Pocatello "This new version is even better than the older version which was awesome! Your programming skills and met knowledge amaze me!" — Chris Kincaid |

by Tim Vasquez 2006 / 304 pp. / $29.95 / ISBN 0-9706840-6-1 6 x 9" / True bound / Offset print / Glossy color cover The Weather Forecasting Red Book is a groundbreaking reference that breaks away from theory and helps forecasters tackle everyday prediction problems. The book contains a wealth of information on real-life techniques, methods, and forecast systems. It draws upon a considerable body of experience by the weather services of the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. The first section deals with observational systems, explaining what quantities of wind, temperature, and pressure really mean. The analysis section defines the standards for map analysis, color schemes. A forecasting section has over a hundred pages of forecasting techniques, pattern recognition, and basic ideas and principles. And of course the important facets of numerical forecast models are explained in detail. If it's needed at the forecast desk, it's in here.
