Description:
For many of us there are two types of weather: good (sunny) or bad (anything else), and our likelihood of venturing outside is governed by that simplistic judgement. But inclement weather can be beautiful, sublime –

even fun. It transforms the light, textures and colours of a landscape, allowing new worlds to emerge – shrouded in fog, splintered by ice and refreshed by rain. It influences our mood and behaviour. It has inspired poets and artists, seeped into our language and folklore, and fundamentally shaped our way of life on these isles.



In All Weathers takes us from the howling winds of Skye to the fen-sucked fogs of East Anglia, as Matt Gaw embarks on a series of walks across Britain – through rain, fog, wind, ice and snow – to look again at our most widely accessed experience of the natural world. He explores the science of weather, the ways it is changing, its impact on our psychology and culture, and how we can embrace it as a positive presence in our lives. It's time to throw open the doors, window and soul to the inspiring wildness of weather.
