Clouds have been long known to give away the future of the weather for atleast a given period of time. They have a certain look and feel that is different for each cloud. However, there is nothing definite about them. On these following pages appear the most obvious and the most accurate inferences. There is about a 25% chance that some of these predictions are inaccurate. Therefore, use caution and common sense when using these forecasts.

     To use this interactive guide to predicting your own weather, first locate the cloud sky that most resembles your sky. Also check to see whether the Major Clues are present as well. If this is true, then you can read the major inference. If you would like a more detailed explanation, then click on the link labeled More Details at the bottom right of each cloud study. There you will find a detailed explanation of the wind, temperature, pressure, and precipitation . There you will also find things like what the most common trend is, what the normal change is, what normally happens, what the worst case scenario is, and what the least that could happen is for each trend listed above. We highly suggest that you click on More Details for each cloud study to learn more about cloud and meterology in general.

     An error in timing is the most common mistake made. If bad weather is expected, then it is better to assume that it will come sooner rather than later, especially at sea. Rarely, there are times when nothing is listed under certain trends. These are only because nothing significant can be said about these specific headings. It does not mean that no change will occur, just that the change will be minor.

     So what are you waiting for?!? Click here and start looking for your cloud sky in our interactive guide to predicting your local weather.
