How weather got its words: a history of meteorological English – Part 2: the scientific age and beyond

open access: yesWeather, EarlyView.
The English language is a gargantuan, gluttonous beast. It has become extraordinary in its powers of assimilation – such that we rarely consider the origins of the words we use.
