WeatherBrains 134: NHC Warning Coordination Met.
WeatherBrains Episode 134 is now online (August 18, 2008). If you are crazy about weather, this is THE netcast audio program for you!
The Weather Brains crew has a special guest with us tonight. Stacy Stewart is the Warning Coordination Meteorologist for the National Hurricane Center, and he joins us from his home tonight. Fay will get a lot of attention as she moves northward along the southwest coast of Florida. Stacy gives us a first-hand view of what goes on at the National Hurricane Center.
And how about walking through a tornado? You can do that if you are in Chicago and visit the Field Museum. Our own weather geek, Brian Peters, gives a first hand account of doing just that.
James Spann looks into the mailbag for comments and questions and we try to provide some form of reasonably intelligent answer.
From The Weather Center: Circumhorizontal arcs? Holy color spectrum, Batman, what in the world is a circumhorizontal arc and where can you see these things? The professor has all the details on what these things are.
This Week in Weather History: Bill Murray has some information on this week when Hurricane Andrew occurred.
