“Remember the movie The Day after Tomorrow? It was a classic big-weather story, full of catastrophic special effects.

This novel, written by veteran meteorologist Evans and technological writer Jameson, is exactly the same kind of story, in print form. Just sit back and let the action wash over you. The book is a fast-paced action-adventure that promises a rousing finale and delivers it.” —Booklist

“Evans, a meteorologist for New York’s WABC-TV, and novelist Jameson pit a posse of diverse weatherfolk against Simone, a storm of unheard-of magnitude that’s headed straight for Manhattan.

The authors meticulously lay their fictional and scientific groundwork.

Weather nerds should have a good time from beginning to end.” —Publishers Weekly

“Take a healthy dose of the paranoid scenarios from 24 and governmental intrigues from The West Wing, then spike them liberally with the atmospheric minutia that armchair meteorologists know and love. What emerges might be strikingly similar to this clever debut from TV meteorologist Evans, here teaming with romance novelist Jameson to spin a fictional take on long-whispered conspiracy theories about weather as a clandestine weapon.” —Kirkus Reviews

“Category 7 is a superb thriller of a disaster untold until now.

A rare insight to what might and could very well happen in the future.

Suspenseful and shocking…It is truly a fine book to be proud of.” —Clive Cussler, New York Times bestselling author

“Category 7 is a well-researched thriller whose building devastation will keep the reader ‘churning’ through the pages.” —Steve Alten, New York Times bestselling author of MEG and The Loch
