It offers in depth knowledge of the 500 mb charts which is required to better understand weather at sea.

FWIW

I was lucky/blessed to be able to attend a couple of Lee's weather classes years ago. Thankfully, I knew a little bit about weather which made his class easier to understand. Even with a little bit of knowledge, listening to Lee talk about the weather was like drinking from a fire house. He was imparting sooooo much knowledge in every phrase and sentence. I bought his book and he signed it.

His book reads the way he talked too. I read his book several times to wrap my head around what he was teaching and I supposed I should reread it again.
