If you feel like Wisconsin weather patterns have gotten a little more excessive - you're not alone! The Wisconsin State Climatology Office along with the Rural Partnerships Institute and Wisconet are road tripping beginning in December. They're goal isn't just seeing rural Wisconsin, they want to hear from people living in rural Wisconsin about how they're gathering their own weather information. Amanda Latham, Outreach Specialist for Wisconsin's Sate Climatology Office says that their office wants to better understand what rural areas need. These listening sessions will allow attendees to ask questions and share perspectives and experiences with extreme weather. Floods, drought, extreme heat, and cold - to name just a few challenges. Latham says with this information, they hope to develop data, tools, and resources to help communities better understand local weather and climate, as well as improve extreme weather preparedness. The "Extreme Weather and Climate Services Roadshow" will feature staff from the WI State Climatology Office as well as Wisconet partners and researchers like Jackson Parr, who's focused on extreme rural weather in Wisconsin. The first meeting December 2nd in Rhinelander will be the first of 3 currently planned. According to Latham, there's not a virtual option right now, but they're always interested in hearing from rural residents about what they can do to help with future forecasting tools, and emergency preparedness in rural areas. If you're planning to attend the free session Tuesday, December 2nd at the Newbold Community Center in Rhinelander, you can register here.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on World Ocean Radio, our host Peter Neill is thinking about the word "solastalgia", described as a deep grief over changing landscapes that were once familiar; feeling ‘homesick' while still being at home, due to rapid alterations to the environment; the stress from experiencing change and loss in the face of rapid, disruptive change. Peter suggests that solastalgia may offer the opposite effects of hopelessness, melancholy, and despair, providing the conditions for commitment, engagement, dedication, optimism, and invention.About World Ocean RadioWorld Ocean Radio is a weekly series of five-minute audio essays available for syndicated use at no cost by college and community radio stations worldwide.

We're talking about some of the Extreme Weather Events in Texas History. It's the 2000s and the Bad Boys are about to hit the Texas Coast, In the past few episodes, I've talked about some of our most devasting hurricanes. The one that wiped out the entire town of Indianola in the 1800s, how in 1900 a Hurricane devastated Galveston, and last episode in the 60s and 70s, we met hurricanes, Carla, Beaulah, and several others all of whom battered the Texas coast and brought forth death and destruction throughout the region. For a few decades it seemed like things were becoming peaceful. Even as the century changed, into the 2000s, things really were different. Not exactly silent,  but they seemed to be more subdued. The ocean was entering a quieter rhythm; part of a natural heartbeat scientists call the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation. The waters of the Gulf were a little cooler, the winds aloft a little harsher, slicing apart many storms before they could rise into monsters. Some years, El Niño set up shop in the Pacific, tilting the balance of the atmosphere and turning the Gulf into a hostile place for hurricanes to grow. Storms still came, but many curved away, sparing Texas and spending their fury elsewhere. To long-time coastal residents, it almost felt like a truce — as though the Gulf itself was taking a breath between great battles. But as history always warns, quiet seas are never quiet forever. Coastal cities in Texas received a warning that things might be different when in 2005 Hurricane Rita brushed the Texas-Louisiana border in 2005, and then when Humberto came along in 2007 and Ike in 2008, it was a grim reminder that Texas was always living on borrowed time.

Nature is a significant factor on the global balance sheet, and the cost of nature loss affects many key economic sectors. Denial or exclusion of nature's true value is flawed economics on the profit and loss of earth's natural resources and systems. This week on World Ocean Radio we are discussing a Ceres publication entitled, "Nature's Price Tag: The Economic Cost of Nature Lost" that explores the decline in ecosystem services used by five nature loss drivers. And we argue that the larger ecosystem service perspective must be included in the true cost analysis of most everything we use, make, and consume. About World Ocean Radio World Ocean Radio is a weekly series of five-minute audio essays available for syndicated use at no cost by college and community radio stations worldwide.

https://www.FutureOfRisk.com/Extreme weather is creating unprecedented challenges for cities worldwide, with events like Valencia's record-breaking rainfall and the L.A. wildfires highlighting the urgent need for urban resilience. Drawing on experience from New York City's $20 billion climate adaptation program and global initiatives like 100 Resilient Cities, the conversation emphasizes the importance of integrated risk assessment, updated infrastructure, and innovative solutions that include a mix of green, blue and gray infrastructure. The episode stresses the financial and social benefits of investing in resilience, noting that cities with robust adaptation plans see better credit ratings, lower risks, and a stronger return on investment. As urbanization accelerates, collaboration between public and private sectors and a clear focus on risk-informed planning are essential for future-ready cities. Ultimately, building resilience is not just about protection—it's a strategic advantage for municipalities and businesses alike.In the final episode of the Future of Risk podcast miniseries, our host Arooran "Aroo" Sivasubramaniam, Head of Zurich Resilience Solutions is joined by Alexander Mirescu, Head of Extreme Weather and Climate and Daniel Zarrilli, Former Chief Resilience Officer to discuss how municipalities can adapt to more frequent and intense storms, flooding, heat, and wildfires.

This is episode 74 of the Hidden History of Texas and it's time to meet some of the Mean Girls of the 60s and 70s. The 1960s and 1970s saw Texas getting hit by several storms, all of which were given ladies names, but none of whom acted very lady like. Let's meet Hurricane Carla in 1961, in1967 Hurricane Beulah's showed up, not to be outdone Hurricane Celia hit in 1970, and then in 1979 it was Hurricane Claudette. All of which devastated parts of Texas. In September of 1961, the Texas coast faced one of the largest and most powerful hurricanes in recorded history — Hurricane Carla. It turns out that Carla was indeed a monster of a storm. Out over the Gulf of Mexico, her winds reached 175 miles per hour, and by the time she aimed herself at Texas, hurricane-force winds stretched more than a hundred miles from the center. Even if you weren't in the direct path, you were going to feel Carla's fury. On September 11, Carla roared ashore near Port O'Connor and Port Lavaca as a Category 4 hurricane. The storm pushed a towering wall of water ranging from 15 to 20 feet high across the coast. Entire towns were swallowed by the surge. Port Lavaca was nearly destroyed, and low-lying areas across Matagorda and Calhoun Counties disappeared beneath the sea. Winds tore apart homes, ripped up piers, and flung debris miles inland. Even Houston, dozens of miles away, was shaken by hurricane-force gusts. And then came the tornadoes — more than two dozen of them, spinning off Carla's circulation, tearing through Texas, Louisiana, and as far north as the Midwest. By the time the storm finally moved inland and began to fade, 43 lives had been lost. But that number could have been far higher. Warnings from forecasters and state officials led to half a million people evacuating the Texas coast, the largest evacuation in U.S. history up to that point. --- NOT A COMPLETE TRANSCRIPT ---

The situation with respect to the climate crisis is developing rapidly. Each new study seems to bring worse news. In addition, the media is rife with climate denial and misinformation. To help us understand what is happening on this planet, Clearing the FOG speaks with environmental journalist Robert Hunziker. Hunziker follows climate studies published in scientific journals and translates them into a language the average person can understand. He reports that top scientists are saying there has been a fundamental shift in the climate. Rainforests and tundras are now spewing carbon instead of sequestering it, and the oceans have reached their capacity for storing the planet's heat. Cascading weather events are making areas of the world uninhabitable. For More information, visit PopularResistance.org.

“Energy efficiency…is doing more, using less. The megawatt not used is the cheapest megawatt and there's so many things, either by using technology, old technology like insulation or digitalization, that allows us to really stretch what we can get out every single megawat, a kilowatt electron that we use. And so that's what we're talking about. If we had the kind of massive adoption that we need, we could get to a big 40% reduction.” Paula Glover on Electric Ladies Podcast With the Energy Star program and other energy efficiency programs under attack and misunderstood, we decided to revisit this enlightening discussion with Paula Glover, CEO of the Alliance To Save Energy and Electric Ladies host Joan Michelson. She also shares insightful career advice. The International Energy Agency (IEA) said energy efficiency should be one of the cornerstones of reducing our carbon emissions to address global warming – and incentives in the Inflation Reduction Act and Infrastructure Investment Act were designed to do just that. But now those are being cut or curtailed. How can energy efficiency really make a difference? Listen to this episode. You'll hear about: What the Alliance To Save Energy is and who its members are, the impact they have. What energy efficiency really is – and is not. How you can identify and tap the savings to increase the energy efficiency of your home, business, school or community. What the Roadmap for a Just Energy Transition is and how it works. Plus, insightful career advice, such as… “One would be, relationships matter, and you should be feeding into them as much as you want to get out of it. So, it's not about who….Number two, which is that as much as you're looking for a mentor, you should also be a mentor. And that mentorship is not just, I'm at 15 years and so I mentor someone who's at five. But if you really nurture relationship, you could be at 15 years mentoring someone who's at 25 years, right? You have something to contribute….There is so much that we have to contribute at every stage of our career. I think taking the opportunity to do that leads to other opportunities that you may never have known about.” Paula Glover on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here.
