WeatherBrains Episode 68 is now online (May 14, 2007).
In this week’s episode:
After the Storms: We’ll visit with Gary Woodall, Warning Coordination Meteorologist, National Weather Service , Fort Worth, TX. Gary gives us a “behind the scenes” look at storm surveys. Straight line winds or rotating? Storm surveys provide valuable clues and research information;
A New Feature! Weather Makers and Troublemakers: Every area has its forecast challenges. We’ll tour the country and find out what gives local meteorologists the most trouble in their area. This week we’ll visit with Mike Stone from WTOL-TV in Toledo, OH and talk lake effect snow, and forecasting highs in the upper 60’s to near 80 in the same place on the same day!;
Correction: Last week Mike Umsheid, the meteorologist working radar during the Greensburg, KS tornado, was identified in “The Week In Weather” as Tim. We apologize to Mike and refer you again to the Dodge City, National Weather Service website. Interesting new information is being added to the site.
