We all feel qualified to talk about the weather. But despite it going on around us all the time, the secrets of how weather works remain hidden from view.
Because all weather, even the everyday stuff, is riddled with mystery and wonder. The hidden mechanics at work are often amazing and sometimes downright magical. Yet despite scientists studying weather phenomena for thousands of years, we know far less about how weather actually works than you might expect.

Wild Weather with Richard Hammond’ is a weather series unlike any other and it will completely change our understanding of the extraordinary natural forces at play in our weather. Only by properly understanding our weather, we can better learn to live with it.
