Summary: Weather Wizard's 5-Year Weather Diary
Review: Having just finished my first 5 year stint with this weather diary, I'm on to enjoying the next half decade. What fun it is to look back on how much VT snow fell last year or the year before. Just how HOT was it on this date over the years? The diary has sat next to my computer all this time and entries are made daily as I wait out my computer's warm up exercises. Friends have taken to checking with me when questions arise about weather history.

The "windows" of weather information provided are also great learning tools. Helps one to understand just what makes those clouds creep down the valley between the high mountains.

My only complaint is that after 5 years of daily use, the pages are dog eared and don't turn very easily on the spiral binding.

Summary: An amateur learns about weather
Review: This simple diary was just what I needed five years ago, when I retired. There was a place for all the important things I'd see as well as a place for short comments. Each day, as I filled it up I could review the weather of years past and be reminded of how changeable it all is. I also recorded lunar events and special storms, family changes and significant political dates. It is a great record, easily kept and easily reviewed. Combined with the Old Farmer's Almanac, one truly keeps in touch with the world around in a way that must resemble that of the farmer.

Some information on estimating wind speed and perhaps some information on setting of a barometer would be a good addition.

Summary: For all ages
Review: We gave my father his first copy of this book ten years ago when he was 80. He is now 90 and has completed two books. He can look back to see what the weather was over the past ten years and make his own predictions. He keeps meticulous records. It takes dedication to fill in the temperatures, winds, weather conditions every day for five years. For anyone who is facinated by weather, this is a terrific present.
