Weather is one of the most astonishing forces on earth. With devastating power and spectacular beauty, no matter where on this planet you live. But for most of us, how it actually works is a mystery. To really understand the science behind weather, Richard Hammond takes on some ambitious and brave experiments to show us weather like we’ve never seen before.
Starting with how wind actually originates, Hammond visits one of the windiest places on the planet, Mount Washington, New Hampshire. He walks into the centre of a man-made tornado and creates a 10-metre high whirlwind - made of fire! He then investigates the crucial role of water and tries to weigh a cloud, finds out how rain could crush a car and gets involved in starting an avalanche before finally finishing with the crucial role temperature plays in the role of weather and natural disasters alike.

Wind: 00:00-56:53
Water: 56:54- 1:43:44
Temperature: 1:43:45-2:51:11
