Heavy weather is a thrilling sci-fi cyberpunk book with a plot in a context of severe climate change after some major planetary dislocation that produces brutally destructive tornadoes at a large scale unknown in previous history… and a dysfunctional society in great disarray. A genius mathematician devises weather models which tell him that the most destructive ever tornado ever is coming; with end of civilization as we know it destructive power. A ragtag team of gypsy amateur scientists living in vans and motor homes travels the Southern USA tracking the increasingly strong tornadoes and testing their hardware and software, encountering various environmental and violent social challenges in a world after the day after type of scenario. The short book does a brilliant job in advancing new technologies and mixing science with weather and biology, including DNA. Is an entertaining reading where the characters are well built and defined in few words with interesting scenes creation and cool life experiences out on the range. And there is love in this end of the world horizon too!
