The Weather Machine: A Journey Inside the Forecast by Andrew Blum

 Let's not go into the details but did you ever wonder how this weather get's updated in your phone. Or how you plan of going out to the beach or not based on what you know about the weather today. Well, the most common point is that the weather scientists are never taken seriously until recently when there weather forecasts alerted us about the torrential rains or typhoons.

But after reading the book you will appreciate the way you check weather on your phone. It is a complicated system of data, hardware, software and global cooperation.

It may be a bit boring to read but only complaining about the weather was the most entertaining thing.

Peace
