Overview

Have you ever saved up for a rainy day, had your head in the clouds or generally felt under the weather? 

The British obsession with weather and the words we use to describe it have come to define us. We talk about it endlessly – five whole months of our lives, to be 
precise. We use it to start conversations with complete strangers. It affects our moods, shopping habits and even how we vote.

This book is packed with information you’ll want to share about this important subject – quirky history, surprising facts, folklore, intriguing words and impressive people.

Alex Johnson is a journalist and author. His books include Shedworking, Menus that Made History and The Book Lover’s Joke Book.
