Mastering the Weather
Read the forecast and be there when the light happens.
“Take advantage of weather conditions, rather than suffer from them.”
Have you ever trusted a good forecast, only to find yourself in the wrong place at the wrong time? You cannot control the weather, but you can predict it and adapt to it. I teach you how, so you save time, kilometres and a lot of frustration.

Stop chasing the weather
At random
With a method
You believe the forecast you like best
You know which forecast to trust today
Clear sky above you, so you go
You know if the light will get through
Good forecast, wrong place, wrong time
The right spot, chosen on the day

What you will learn
- Which tool to open, months or hours before
- Choosing the weather model for where you shoot
- Knowing when a forecast deserves your trust
- Reading the clouds by height
- My Clouds Horizon Distance plugin for Windy.com
- Storms, fog and rain as chances, not threats
