Traveling extensively throughout the region and the world, Wayne addresses critical issues affecting all aspects of hurricanes, especially Bahamian hurricanes which are one of his central areas of expertise. The central themes of his books are always on hurricanes in general and the impact of hurricanes on all aspects of mankind’s ever expanding society. He has a great passion for writing and does it in his spare time. Wayne Neely is a certified Meteorologist working at the Department of Meteorology in Nassau, Bahamas for the last 20 years-prior to that he majored in Geography and History at the College of the Bahamas in Nassau. He then attended the Caribbean Meteorological Institute in Barbados where he majored and specialized in weather forecasting. His love for hurricanes and the weather came about while growing up on the island of Andros where he experienced his first hurricane in 1979 and listened quite regularly to his parents, grand parents and other older residents within the community talking about a major hurricane which occurred in 1929 and devastated the Bahamas. That piqued his interest in hurricanes and got him started on writing his first book called ‘The Great Bahamas Hurricane of 1929.’ He then went onto write his second book called ‘The Major Hurricanes to Affect the Bahamas’ followed by his third book ‘Rediscovering Hurricanes’ (Foreword by Herbert Saffir) and his fourth book ‘The Great Bahamian Hurricanes of 1926’(Foreword by Bryan Norcross) and now this is his fifth book on hurricanes and the rest is history. Over the years, Wayne has written several articles on hurricanes and other severe weather events for some of the major local and international newspapers and magazines. He has regularly contributed and wrote the hurricane supplements for both The Nassau Guardian and The Tribune. He speaks quite regularly to schools, colleges, universities and frequently does radio and television interviews both locally and abroad about the history and impact of Bahamian and Caribbean hurricanes and hurricanes in general.view less
