“An excellent synthesis of modern midlatitude synoptic-dynamic meteorology that will serve advanced undergraduate and graduate atmospheric science students as well as working scientists and forecasters very well.”

Lance Bosart, University at Albany, State University of New York

“Lackmann fulfills a desperate need among today’s students and teachers. No book has more approached Rossby’s vision of a bridge across the gap between theory and observation than Midlatitude Synoptic Meteorology.”

Dave Schultz, University of Manchester

“Lackmann has given students of meteorology the gift of an outstanding, up-to-date textbook on weather analysis and forecasting. He combines the building blocks of theory with modern observations and modeling to provide an exceptionally clear understanding of the workings of our atmosphere.”

Steven Businger, University of Hawaii
