Heat waves, snowstorms, floods, droughts, tornadoes, rain and hail. South Australia's weather brings everything from idyllic snow to destructive bushfires and death. How do people cope? Sixteen human stories, some never told before, put you there at the time. Produced by The Australian Meteorological Association Inc and the Bureau of Meteorology, this book is about people and exceptional weather, how they cope, how they survive, and sadly, how they sometimes fail to survive.
