Uncanny Magazine Issue 26: January/February 2019 by Marissa Lingen, Fran Wilde, Linda D. Addison, Hal Y. Zhang, Caroline M. Yoachim, Elsa Sjunneson-Henry, Ellen Kushner, Delilah S.

3.0
***A Catalog of Storms by Fran Wilde***
A fantasy-take on climate change.
When a blue sky is just a remembrance of our past, people are turning into weathermen to fight back the storms. But there's a sacrifice to make. Our adversary is strong. And mothers are crying for their daughters, as they try to save us all.
Very nice idea. But I think the message is a lot stronger than the actual story.
2.5 stars
A Nebula 2019 and Hugo 2020 nominee for Best Short Story.
