WeatherBrains Episode 105<\/a> is now online (January 28, 2008). This is THE<\/strong> netcast audio program for people who absolutely love<\/strong> everything weather.<\/p>\n

\"TimHe Ain’t Heavy:<\/strong> But he knows gravity. Tim Coleman is one of the leading researchers on atmospheric gravity waves and how they affect severe weather. In addition to sharing some of his research, Tim will fill us in on some of highlights of the recent American Meteorological Society Annual Meeting just held in New Orleans. Read more about Tim here.<\/a><\/p>\n

\"BillIn The News:<\/strong> NOAA has selected a new director for the National Hurricane Center.<\/a> He is Bill Read. Here is an article<\/a> from the Orlando Sentinel with more information about the announcement. Read is called a perfect fit for the position and one who will reflect the calm style of Max Mayfield.<\/p>\n

<\/a>Who Is That Dashing Young Man?:<\/strong> Our crack staff of researchers (actually Larry McCray from Alabama) has uncovered a rare 1954 article about the great weather legend, JB Elliott. JB has had weather in his blood since an early age. Click here<\/a> or the thumbnail to read the article. Here is a more recent picture of JB.<\/a><\/p>\n

\"SnowflakesWeatherBrains 101:<\/strong> Snow flakes are small, intriguing, crystalline, not easily photographed. And a recent Blog post I ran across brought a name before my eyes that I don’t think I’d ever seen before. But Wilson Alwyn Bentley was a pretty cool guy – and he even came from my home state of Vermont. This week we explore “Snowflake” Bentley and his contribution to understanding our atmosphere.<\/p>\n

This Week In Weather History:<\/strong>\u00c2\u00a0 Bill Murray looks through the record books at some interesting weather history.<\/p>\n

\"ListenerListener Surveys:<\/strong> Okay, okay, we keep driving this topic into the ground, but we really do like to hear from you. And many thanks to everyone who has taken the time to fill out the Listener Survey. The survey just takes a minute or two, and it provides us with an opportunity to learn where you are and hear your thoughts and comments on the show. Click here<\/a> to take the survey.<\/p>\n
