Coastal and Offshore Weather, The Essential Handbook is now a highly interactive and digitally delivered publication available in the Waterway Guide Media mobile app. Chris Parker's venerable book receives rave reviews from readers who want insights into weather forecasting and associated topics.

Now in its 5th edition, this is the perfect introduction to understanding coastal and offshore weather systems, forecasting models, and the science behind the topics. The foundational concepts of meteorology are covered in one or two pages per subject for easy understanding and background. Presented succinctly and with accompanying graphics, the content includes a robust glossary and links throughout for easy exploration and discovery.

He has distinguished himself and his colleagues as an important resource for vessels transiting coastal and offshore waters.
