Weather

Introduction

Predicting what the weather will be like can be a very useful skill. When out walking in the hills/ mountains it can potentially save your life. The weather in certain places can be unpredictable and liable to sudden changes (which is why so many unprepared people get into difficulty on our hills and mountains each year) but a little knowledge can help you predict most changes of weather.

Weather and its study (meteorology) also underlay aspects of the cub and scout training program and can serve as an interesting introduction to the scientist badge too.
