The Great Lakes exert a considerable influence on the weather of the surrounding area, causing fog, clouds, breezes, snowfall, and other "lake effects." This clearly written and profusely illustrated book explains the atmospheric processes underlying the characteristic weather patterns of the region, discusses the climatic history of the Great Lakes, and evaluates the role of air pollution and nuclear power plants.
