Everyone talks about the weather. So do we. But differently! Sven Plöger, a prominent ARD meteorologist, and Rolf Schlenker, a SWR science journalist, embark on a fascinating journey to the locations that shape our Central European climate: the Azores with their high-pressure systems, Iceland with its low-pressure areas, the Atlantic with the mega heating power of the Gulf Stream, and the Gulf of Genoa, where notorious weather patterns develop that have been responsible for devastating flood disasters along the Elbe and Oder rivers. In Greenland, the authors investigate the mysterious disappearance of the entire Viking settlement in the early 15th century - were the settlers victims of climate change? Who would have known that Europe narrowly escaped a Fukushima disaster after Hurricane Lothar? Where our weather originates: a highly complex topic is explained in an easily understandable and captivating manner.
