WeatherBrains 258: Pump Up The Bass
WeatherBrains Episode 258 is now online (January 4, 2011). If you are crazy about weather, this is THE netcast audio program for you!
Morgan Palmer was one of the WeatherBrains on show 213 nearly one year ago. We talked about Social Media since he has mastered its use in his delivery of the weather. He is the Weekday Meteorologist on NBC2 News (WBBH Fort Myers/Naples, FL).
This week’s Guest WeatherBrain is back by popular demand. Roger Hill is arguably the most prolific storm chaser in the world. He has appeared on the National Geographic Channel, The Weather Channel, The Discovery Channel, The Travel Channel, The Learning Channel, NOVA, BBC, 60 Minutes, all the major networks, as well as many other shows. He recently authored a book called “Hunting Nature’s Fury” which chronicles his life as a storm chaser from his childhood days in Kansas. Throughout tornado season, he leads guided chase tours through his company Silver Lining Tours.
Other discussions in this weekly podcast include topics like:
Our mail bag officer has been dropping the bag and blaming it on email delivery. But all of his test emails go through. Go figure! But maybe and Kevin puts it in perspective.
From The Weather Center:
WeatherBrains 101: Backing and veering – those are actually weather terms probably stolen from the field of automobile driving! But these terms actually apply to how the wind changes.
TWIWH: Bill Murray looks back at the week of January 4th.
