What reading level is A Short Course in Elementary Meteorology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

On October 14, 1912, on which day a line squall crossed Great Britain. It will be noticed in the 7 t a. M. Chart that northerly or north-westerly winds were blowing down the western coast of Scotland, whilst south-westerly winds were blowing across Southern Scotland. The line of meeting of these two air streams of considerably different temperature was marked by a land squall and all its attendant phenomena. The wind and pressure " traces " taken at Aberdeen on the day in question are also show...n in Fig. 16, and should be carefully studied in the light of what has already been said. Line squalls are most frequent near the trough line on the southern sides of depressions, and are especially liable to happen if the depressions be at all V-shaped, for then, the two wind streams, the one southerly and warm, the other, north- westerly or westerly and colder, are brought more abruptly into conjunction. Line squalls constitute an exceptionally serious menace both to shipping and to aircraft. Happily, however, once one appears it is regular in its habits and travels steadily from west to east, or from south-west to north-east, with a velocity of 20 to 30 miles per hour ; and hence, due warning of its coming can be given to localities in their track.
