I read this because it's part of the Hugo 2020 Short Story Shortlist.
I enjoyed this. I loved the imagery that it managed to create in such a short amount of time. It quickly built the characters, setting, relationships and conflict. But I felt it was in an area of fantastical that is just a tad difficult for me to grasp. Especially with it being so short, I was unable to really get into the whole concept of weathermen, fighting the weather and this family who have family members literally becoming weather. I would definitely want a whole book about this so we could really get into the lore and the fantastical elements.
