WeatherBrains 128: Variety is the Spice
WeatherBrains Episode 128 is now online (July 7, 2008). The netcast audio program for people who really nuts about love weather.
Kevin Selle joins us again and brings us up-to-date on the media and weather situation in North Central Texas.
Weather Brains has no special guest for this episode, so the crew goes wild with a variety of topics.
The sale of the Weather Channel and some of the personnel issues there.
How about global warming labels for cars? California will be the first to implement this with 2009 model year.
Boy Scouts in Iowa were affected by the EF-3 while scouts in the Washington, DC, area benefitted from weather merit badge training from the NWS.
And a comparison of the 1993 and 2008 flooding in the Midwest. Plus JB recaps some interesting rainfall statistics.
James Spann looks into the mailbag which continues running over with questions for which we try to provide some form of reasonably intelligent answer.
