About this listen

Discover the Ancient Art of Reading the Sky.
Long before smartphones and satellite apps, people trusted the sky to tell them what tomorrow would bring. Reading the Sky is your practical, easy-to-follow guide to forecasting the weather using nature’s timeless signs—cloud shapes, wind shifts, colors at dawn and dusk, and even the stars above.

Whether you’re a hiker, camper, sailor, farmer, or simply someone fascinated by the natural world, this book will teach you how to:

Identify different cloud types and what they signal about incoming rain, storms, or fair weather
Read the colors of sunrise and sunset to tell what tomorrow’s skies will hold
Understand wind direction and movement for practical, on-the-spot predictions
Use stars and night sky cues to sense changing weather patterns
Connect folklore with modern meteorology, blending ancient wisdom with scientific insights


Packed with clear explanations and handy tips for observing nature’s clues, Reading the Sky brings the joy and skill of weather reading back to life—no tech required.

If you’ve ever wanted to feel more connected to the natural world and more prepared for whatever the weather brings, this book is your ultimate field guide.
