Weather books/videos/websites Log-In to Post/Reply

Hello all,
Does anybody out there have any favorite books about weather predictions for mariners. I already know the basics but I would like to go more in depth and better understand not only the physics of weather ( good luck to me) but also the tools available on the web and in nature. In other words something explaining the weather from clouds to grib files
MAybe good websites or good videos as well.
Thanks

my favourite book is Wind Strategy by David Houghton which is part of the Sail to Win series. He does some nice simple ways to analse what is going on and takes into account direction of gradient, seabreezes, onshore/offshore etc.
