What reading level is Outlines of a Mechanical Theory of Storms book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

If, then, a part of the mass be latent, nutation will givetoo small a value. But, in addition to this, we are justified indoubting the strict wording of the Newtonian law, deriving our authorityfrom the very foundation stone of the Newtonian theory.
It is well known that Newton suspected that the moon was retained in herorbit by the same force which is usually called weight upon the surface, sixteen years before the fact was confirmed, by finding a correspondencein the fall of the moon and the
...fall of bodies on the earth. Usually, inall elementary works, this problem is considered accurately solved. Having formed a different idea of the mechanism of nature, this factpresented itself as a barrier beyond which it was impossible to pass, until suspicions, derived from other sources, induced the author toinquire: Whether the phenomenon did exactly accord with the theory? Weare aware that it is easy to place the moon at such a distance, that theresult shall strictly correspond with the fact; but, from the parallax, as derived from observation (and if this cannot be depended oncertainly, no magnitudes in astronomy can), we find, _that the moon doesnot fall from the tangent of her orbit, as much as the theory requires_.
