This book is designed to help you develop a deep understanding of the basics so you can teach without fear. The author starts with the basic properties of air and water, then helps you learn about pressure, the Coriolis force, the Bernoulli Effect, density, and provides explanations of why hot air doesn't rise all by itself and why heating air doesn't necessarily cause it to expand. These concepts form a foundation for explanations of weather patterns, including the jet stream, storm fronts, and the formation of tornadoes and hurricanes.
