Your profile info/post history reveals not too much, so forgive me for asking, but are you actually interested in the subject, from a practical standpoint?
It is, after all, the environment we all live in, and pilots work (and play) in.
I was lucky in that I learned about basic weather theory starting at age 12 when I realized I could probably afford to start taking gliding lessons, soon. Dry adiabatic lapse rates became a breeze by 13. I've since always been interested in Met, because it is a daily occurrence to watch theory meet reality.
