On this occasion we have a special guest from the department of Earth and Environmental Sciences\, Simon Lee\, who will be discussing Twister (1996) with us. Simon Lee is\, among other things\, a storm chaser\, so he’ll be talking about his experience\, what the film gets right\, and what the film get wrong. \nAs per usual we will gather from 16:30 onwards to watch and discuss the film. You can see the trailer here. Also as per usual\, there will be drinks and snacks from Luvians. Lastly\, here is a list of suggested readings and videos.\n\nTo Read:\n\n\nJana Houser – Weather in my life \n\n\nOn the TOtable Tornado Observatory (TOTO)\, which was an inspiration for the movie.\n\n\nBonus: Aristotle was the first one to provide a ‘systematic discussion of meteorology’. Out of curiosity people might find these interesting\n\n\nAntonescu et. al – Theories on Tornado and Waterspout Formation in Ancient Greece and Rome \n\n\nAristotle – Meteorologica book III ch. 1\n\n\n\n\nSee you then!
