| | A rare and deadly twister rips through parts of Oregon and Washington. Haboobs strip paint off cars in Arizona. A dramatic two-hour temperature gyration--from -4 degrees F to 54 degrees F and then back to -4 degrees f--break plate-glass windows in Spearfish, South Dakota, Most of the wildness of the western frontier may have gone the way of the buffalo, but weather, as meteorologist Tye Parzybok Illustrates in Weather Extremes of the West, is still a wild beast. From the windswept Great Plains to the mossy Pacific Coast, weather runs rampant--flooding, burning, and blowing its way across the western landscape. |
