Predicting Rainfall from Moisture

Predicting rainfall

Six years ago I predicted the heavy rainfall that that has hit Ireland and the rest of the British Isles over the past few days.

I am not a clairvoyant, I don’t even have a crystal ball. Using some basic principles that I describe in the first two chapters of my eBook A Wet Look At Climate Change I wrote about the consequences of global warming and the likely event of extreme weather hitting us.
