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.

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.

If you want to be a weather person or work for the NOAA or the NWS this is the thing for you. It helps you to know every thing about weather I have one and I'm recording every day the weather in this book and I got it for Christmas 2001 and I LOVE it. So pick one yp today and enjoy,love and respect weather all arround you. :-)
