How many times have they been asked, "Which organization are you from?" or "Why is the weather forecast not accurate?" and so on. So they decided to write a book about the questions and answers that the audience couldn't understand through the program. They not only talk about the weather but also graduated from Beijing Meteorological College with a major in Weather Dynamics.

In 2004, she was named "Mr. Meteorology." Yang Dan graduated from the of Beijing Broadcasting College. As a child, she dreamed of becoming a singer. After graduating from university, she began hosting CCTV-1's "Weather Forecast." With her sweet voice and youthful, attractive appearance, she was honored as "Miss Meteorology" in 2004. Over more than ten years of, Song Yingjie, Yang Dan, and their colleagues gradually made "Weather Forecast" a television program with scientific quality, a touch of life, and humanistic care. As the importance of meteorological services becomes known to more and more people, the production of weather forecast programs and the daily work of the hosts have also become topics of public interest. The two hosts have been asked many times, "Which organization are you from?" and "Why is the weather forecast not accurate?" So they decided to collect the questions the audience couldn't understand through the TV program and write a book to answer them, using their personal experiences to tell the audience the joys and sorrows of meteorological workers in China, while also revealing the process and behind-the-scenes stories of weather forecast program production. In this book, the two authors recall their childhood, university life, and love stories in vivid, humorous, and even "cutting-edge" language, accompanied by nearly a hundred work and personal photographs. The distinctive feature of this book is that each author's narrative is not isolated but interspersed with the other's humorous comments, allowing readers to gain knowledge and joy in a relaxed context. Weather, like worldly affairs, is unpredictable, just like sunny, cloudy, windy, and rainy days. Life must also experience different ups and downs. Specializing in meteorology, their understanding of nature is also more unique. For this reason, the authors are eager to share this insight with everyone, along with their smiling life attitudes and lifestyles: "When the mood is right, the weather is right!" In the past, weather forecasting was a myth, but in modern society, it is a science with limitations, a kind of advanced intellectual game for humans. Since 1980, weather forecasting has also become a TV program. Starting in 1993, there were hosts who explained the weather. Thus, "Mr. Meteorology" and "Miss Meteorology" became new social terms. Over the past ten years, Song Yingjie and Yang Dan have gradually made the weather forecast a television program with scientific quality, a touch of life, and humanistic care, sharing sunshine and bearing with countless people every day. How is the weather forecast made? Why is the weather forecast sometimes inaccurate? What attitude do experts and hosts have toward these problems and how do they solve them? What kind of spirituality and philosophy is contained in the weather? How do those who predict and appreciate the weather experience and enjoy it? Song Yingjie and Yang Dan, with fresh and intellectual brushstrokes, reveal their passion for weather forecasting, their behind-the-scenes stories, their interests, their collective, their respective smooth love lives, the history embedded in their programs, and various weather forecasts from around the world. In every chapter of this book, one person tells a story while the other comments, trying to prevent readers from experiencing aesthetic fatigue during the reading process. The weather forecast is scientific and rigorous, but this book is simple and light. In the little details of the narration, we share a sense of emotion, a lightness, a humor beyond the weather forecast, and a life attitude full of smiles.
