Game Day Weather: Impact Field, Rosemont, ILChicago Dogs vs. Winnipeg Goldeyes — Sunday, July 5, 2026 | First Pitch 3:00 PM CDTA complete meteorological breakdown of weather conditions for today's game.=== THE STADIUM ===Impact Field | 9850 Balmoral Ave, Rosemont, IL 60018Coordinates: 41.983°N, 87.874°W | ~12 miles NW of downtown Chicago=== WEATHER SUMMARY ===NWS Chicago AFD issued 12:23 PM CDT, forecaster Yack.Pattern: Baggy shortwave trough over western Great Lakes. Broad surface low over southern Lake Michigan. Very saturated low levels — dew points near 68°F (tropical threshold). IFR fog and low stratus through midday.KEY FINDING FOR ROSEMONT: Primary storm axis is near/south of the Kankakee River Valley (30-40% chance), and as a precaution north to I-80 (20-25%). Rosemont sits 20+ miles north of I-80 — in the favored DRY zone.At First Pitch (3 PM CDT):- Temperature: ~75-78°F- Dew Point: ~68°F (humid but comfortable with lake breeze)- Sky: Mostly cloudy- Wind: NNE 10-15 mph gusts to 20 mph- Precipitation Probability (Rosemont): ~20%- Severe Threat: Virtually ZERO (limited wind shear, weak instability)=== NWS TERMS EXPLAINED IN THIS EPISODE ===- Baggy shortwave trough: Diffuse, spread-out dip in the jet stream — not a focused punch- Shortwave trough: Small-scale dip in the jet stream driving rising air and weather- Surface low: Low pressure at ground level drawing air inward and upward- Very saturated low levels: Air near the surface is soaked with moisture (dew point 68°F)- Wind shear: How wind speed/direction changes with altitude — limited today = brief pulse storms only- Instability: Atmospheric fuel for thunderstorm updrafts — much weaker than heat dome days- GFS, NAM, HREF, NBM: Weather models used to generate forecast guidance- Ensemble spread: Range of solutions across multiple model runs=== IMPACT FIELD DRAINAGE — THE SECRET WEAPON ===Built in 2018 with one of the best drainage systems in minor league baseball.Can absorb 1 inch of rain (64,000 gallons) and return to playable condition in 20-25 minutes.Source: Daily Herald, 2017 pre-opening report.=== RAIN-OUT CRITERIA (American Association / Impact Field) ===Per Chicago Dogs official policy: Games will NOT be postponed before start time except in extreme circumstances.American Association umpires determine delays/postponements once game begins.Actual stoppage triggers: Standing water ≥1/4 inch in batter's box/pitcher's rubber zone, field saturation preventing cleat grip, visibility below 500 feet, OR lightning within 8 miles.Official game: 5 innings completed (4.5 if home team leads).No game: Fewer than 5 innings, cannot resume — must be replayed.=== VERDICT ===Rain-out probability at Impact Field: LOW.- Rosemont is 20+ miles north of the primary storm zone- Severe threat: Virtually zero- ~20% POP in the NWS hourly forecast (8 in 10 scenarios = no rain during game)- If a brief shower does clip the stadium, drainage allows resumption in ~25 min- Lightning within 8 miles is the most likely cause of any delay — and the storm track argues against itRECOMMENDATION: Go to the game. Bring a light rain jacket. Bring sunscreen.

Sunny. No Rain. Game Delayed.The Field Science Behind the Delay at Impact Field — Chicago Dogs vs. Winnipeg Goldeyes, July 5, 2026It's sunny. The radar is clean. Not a drop of rain is falling. And the game is delayed 1 hour 45 minutes.Here's why — and why the history of this land made it almost inevitable.=== WHAT HAPPENED ===The Chicago Dogs owner addressed fans, offered refunds to everyone staying and free future tickets to anyone who left. Fans played catch on the field while the grounds crew applied calcined clay conditioner to firm up the surface. New first pitch: 4:45 PM CDT.=== THE RAINFALL DISCREPANCY ===Owner cited ~6 inches. Official NWS O'Hare CF6 record shows:- July 2: 1.64"- July 3: 1.71"- July 4 storm: ~3" at O'Hare per MWRD/NWS (after morning obs cutoff)- Month-to-date through July 4: 3.53" officialMWRD confirmed the McCook TARP system (Cook County flood control) filled 6 times this year — more than the prior 5 years combined.Local field-level measurements at Impact Field, a low-lying site, likely exceeded the airport gauge. The real total near the stadium: 3.5–6 inches over several days.=== WHY THE DRAINAGE SYSTEM WASN'T ENOUGH ===Roger Bossard's celebrated drainage system handles 1 inch / 64,000 gallons on the playing surface in 20–25 minutes — from an acute single event. When the soil column is cumulatively saturated over multiple days, it reaches "field capacity" — gravity drainage stops, the subbase has no remaining capacity, and the surface loses structural support from below. The top layer looks dry. The field is sunny. But the turf will slide and give way under lateral force, creating serious injury risk.=== THE CONDITIONER ===Calcined clay (Turface MVP or Diamond Dry) — kiln-fired at ~1800°F, becomes highly porous and absorbs surface moisture rapidly. Addresses the top 2–3 inches only. Under a lake breeze, firms the surface in 45–90 minutes.=== ROSEMONT'S FLOODING HISTORY ===The Village of Rosemont incorporated in 1956 partly to address flooding. Willow Creek flooded so regularly that rowboats were a household necessity. First village president Donald Stephens made correcting flooding a founding mission. The Impact Field site sits on that same low-lying Chicago lake plain between I-294 and O'Hare.=== 2018 FLOODING AT IMPACT FIELD ===September 3, 2018 — the first season. 2.5 inches fell in 25 minutes. Fans were evacuated. Documented by Live Storms Media: "Insane CG barrage and flooding at Impact Field." This is why Bossard built what he built.=== CURRENT WEATHER (as of ~3 PM CDT) ===NWS AFD issued 1:52 PM CDT by forecaster Doom: "Latest satellite trends show no distinct signs of new development anywhere around the area — confidence to there being little to no impacts north of I-80." HRRR, GFS, ECMWF all show dry conditions at Rosemont through the evening. The 4:45 PM game should be played in sunshine.=== SOURCES ===- NWS O'Hare CF6: https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=LOT&issuedby=ORD&product=CF6- MWRD TARP storm update July 4: https://mwrd.org/news/1030-am-storm-update-mwrds-tarp-systems-manages-heavy-rainfall- NWS Chicago AFD: https://forecast.weather.gov/product.php?site=LOT&issuedby=LOT&product=AFD- Rosemont history / Willow Creek flooding: Encyclopedia of Chicago- 2018 Impact Field flooding: Live Storms Media (YouTube, Sept 3 2018)Tags: weather, Chicago Dogs, Impact Field, Rosemont, rain delay, baseball, field science, soil saturation, groundskeeping, calcined clay, Turface, NWS Chicago, flooding, Chicago historyBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/weather-with-enthusiasm--4911017/support.Weather with Enthusiasm is produced by Kol Simcha Productions.New episodes drop daily (B'N)— a morning forecast at 7 AM and historical deep dives Tuesdays and Thursdays. Contact: kolsimchaproductions@outlook.comHistorical content is thoroughly researched and factually verified.

Impact Field: Field Science — Shawn Hunter, The Man, The Drainage System, The DecisionEpisode 3 | Weather With Enthusiasm | July 5, 2026It's 4:04 PM at Impact Field in Rosemont, Illinois. The sun is out. Not a cloud in the sky. And the game has been delayed nearly two hours. This episode explains why — and why that's actually a testament to smart engineering and even smarter leadership.WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE:

Morning Briefing — Tuesday, June 30, 2026 | Heat Dome Deep-Dive, NWS Lincoln IL, Zmanim & MoreWest Rogers Park, Chicago (ZIP 60645)=== ZMANIM — Tuesday, June 30, 2026 (15 Tamuz 5786) ===Hebrew Date: 15 Tamuz 5786 | Parsha: Chukat-BalakAlos HaShachar: 3:25 AMEarliest Talis & Tefillin: 4:04 AMNetz HaChama (Sunrise): 5:18 AMLatest Krias Shma: 9:06 AMLatest Tefila: 10:22 AMChatzos: 12:54 PMEarliest Mincha: 1:32 PMShkiah (Sunset): 8:30 PM=== TOMORROW'S ZMANIM — Wednesday, July 1, 2026 ===Sunrise: 5:19 AM | Sof Zman Shma: 9:06 AM | Sof Zman Tefila: 10:22 AMChatzos: 12:54 PM | Mincha Gedola: 1:32 PM | Shkiah: 8:30 PM=== WEATHER SUMMARY ===An extreme and historic heat dome grips the Midwest today. A 596 decameter (dam) closed upper-level ridge — one of the strongest ever recorded over this region — is centered over the Ohio Valley, pumping oppressive heat and moisture into Chicago and surrounding areas. Highs in the lower 90s°F with dew points near 80°F are expected, producing heat indices of 105-110°F. An Extreme Heat Warning is in effect through Thursday.=== NWS LINCOLN IL DISCUSSION (Barnes, 5:22 AM CDT) ===596 dam closed contour heat dome over Ohio Valley — historically rare signature. NBM model running 2-4°F too warm; actual highs likely lower 90s rather than mid/upper 90s. Heat index exceeds 105°F through Thursday. SW winds gusting 25 kt.=== NWS CHICAGO LOT DISCUSSION (Ratzer, 2:02 AM CDT) ===H5 ~5960m (~596 dam). Extreme Heat Warning through Thursday. 80°F dew points observed Monday afternoon in southern CWA. Heat index 105-110°F. Lake Michigan water temps: Chicago Shore 66°F, Wilmette 62°F, Chicago Crib 61°F.=== 1995 HEATWAVE COMPARISON ===The 1995 Midwest heat wave remains the benchmark. St. Louis hit a dew point of 83°F on July 14, 1995. Appleton, WI recorded a 90°F dew point — the probable Western Hemisphere record — with a heat index of 153°F. The 1995 wet bulb temperature reached approximately 85°F (29°C). The 500mb ridge in 1995 peaked around 594-596 dam over the Great Plains; today's ridge matches or exceeds that at 596 dam over the Ohio Valley.=== CLOSED CONTOUR HEAT DOME SCIENCE ===A "closed contour" means the 500mb height lines form complete loops — no open pathways for cooler air to enter. Most heat domes do NOT produce closed contours; a closed 596 dam contour is extremely rare and represents an exceptionally locked, stagnant ridge. Not all heat domes are closed contour events.=== CORN BELT MOISTURE SCIENCE ===Corn fields act as natural evapotranspiration engines. A single mature corn plant transpires 50+ gallons of water per growing season. With millions of acres of corn in Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa all in active growth phase, the atmosphere is loaded with moisture from below — supplementing Gulf of Mexico moisture streaming northward. This is why Midwest dew points can spike to 80°F+ even without direct Gulf influence.=== WET BULB / WBGT SCIENCE ===Wet bulb temperature (WB) measures what your body actually feels when sweating. At 92°F air temp with 80°F dew point, the wet bulb approaches 84-85°F — near the physiological survivability limit for even healthy adults with shade and hydration. Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) adds solar radiation load; WBGT >32°C (89.6°F) is considered the military/OSHA "extreme danger" threshold.=== ORTHODOX COMMUNITY FORECASTS ===• St. Louis, MO: Mid-upper 90s, heat index 100-110°F. Extreme Heat Warning through Friday. NWS LSX.• Lakewood, NJ: Low-mid 90s, heat index 98-105°F. NWS PHI.• Borough Park, Brooklyn NY: Upper 80s-low 90s, humid. Heat Advisory. NWS OKX.• Baltimore, MD: Lower 90s, heat index 100-107°F. NWS LWX.• Philadelphia, PA: Lower-mid 90s, heat index 100-108°F. Heat Warning.• Atlantic City, NJ: Upper 80s-low 90s, sea breeze influence moderate.=== ISRAEL & DEAD SEA ===Jerusalem: 40-43°C (104-109°F), typical summer ridge. Low humidity (15-25%). Dead Sea: air temps 40-47°C; water temp ~31°C (88°F). Record at Sedom: 51°C. Mediterranean sea breeze provides relief to coastal Tel Aviv but Jerusalem's inland elevation (~750-800m) retains heat without sea-breeze relief.=== INDIA EXTREME HEAT / WORLD RECORD DEW POINTS ===India's Gangetic Plain and Rajasthan experience dew points of 85-90°F during peak monsoon onset with heat indices routinely above 130°F. The probable world record dew point: 95°F (35°C) at Dhahran, Saudi Arabia on July 8, 2003, with an air temp of 108°F (42°C) — producing a heat index of approximately 172°F.=== NAM vs GFS MODEL ACCURACY ===NAM (North American Mesoscale): Higher resolution (3-km), better at capturing local dew point pooling and mesoscale details. GFS: Global model, coarser, tends to underestimate extreme dew point events in the corn belt. For this event, NAM dew point forecasts of 78-82°F appear more accurate than GFS's 74-76°F projections.=== EPISODE FOOTER ===Morning forecasts air at 7 AM every day on Spreaker.

Lakewood Morning Briefing — Wednesday, June 3, 2026Produced by Kol Simcha Productions | Weather With EnthusiasmHEBREW DATE & PARSHA18 Sivan 5786 | Parashat Beha'alotchaTODAY'S ZMANIM — Lakewood, NJ (ZIP 08701)Netz HaChama (Sunrise): 5:29 AMLatest Krias Shma: 9:12 AMLatest Tefila: 10:26 AMChatzos: 12:55 PMMincha Gedola (Earliest Mincha): 1:32 PMShkiah (Sunset): 8:21 PMWEATHER SUMMARYA gorgeous late-spring day for Lakewood. High pressure from the Great Lakes keeps the region completely dry with mostly sunny skies. Highs in the low to mid 80s inland; the Jersey Shore runs cooler in the low 70s thanks to cold ocean waters. Sea breezes develop in the afternoon. Tonight: mostly clear and mild, lows in the 50s. The pleasant, warm stretch continues through Saturday before a trough brings cooler weather and rain chances this weekend.NWS MOUNT HOLLY DISCUSSION SUMMARYIssued: 6:59 AM EDT, Wednesday June 3, 2026 | Forecasters: Guzzo/MPSKey Message 1: High pressure over the Great Lakes builds east, keeping the region dry through the end of the week. A surface low develops off the Mid-Atlantic coast tonight but is kept well offshore by high pressure. Temperatures warm to near or into the low 90s Friday-Saturday, with shore areas in the 80s.Key Message 2: A positively-tilted upper-level trough digs in from the northwest late Sunday into early next week. GFS shows a cutoff low lingering offshore; ECMWF and CMC show a more progressive pattern. Regardless, a cooling trend, scattered showers, and possible thunderstorms arrive Sunday, with an isolated stronger/severe storm possible. A few showers linger into Monday. Temperatures return to the 70s next week.Rip Currents: LOW risk for Monmouth, Ocean, and Atlantic county beaches; MODERATE risk for Cape May county and Delaware beaches.WEATHER HISTORY — June 3rdOn June 3, 1933, a powerful F2 tornado (roughly equivalent to an EF2, with winds estimated 113–157 mph) cut a 15-mile path across South Dakota, beginning about 6 miles southwest of Wilmot. A child was killed in a barn, and debris from rooftops, barns, and a church was scattered for miles.

This week on the Carolina Weather Group, we are joined by David Bilstrom, a volunteer reporter for the WatchDuty app. David explains how the free app uses collaboration and various data signals to monitor wildfires, relay evacuation notices, and track firefighting aircraft in real time. He also shares his insights on building "Firewise" homes and reacts to the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety's wind-driven fire experiment. Also in this episode:The Drought & The Deluge: We review recent heavy rainfall across the Carolinas, including some staggering totals of up to 12.7 inches near Lake Murray. While the rain was beneficial to the region, it did not entirely end the ongoing drought. Charlotte's Radar Gap: We dive into the frustration race fans experienced during the Coca-Cola 600 at the Charlotte Motor Speedway when rain disrupted the event despite barely showing up on radar. This phenomenon was caused by precipitation falling below the radar beam from the 88D, which sits over 5,000 feet high. Weekend Forecast: Panelist Frank Strait shares the upcoming forecast, highlighting a cold front that will bring cooler, less humid air to North Carolina by Friday. Hurricane Season & Tropics: The panel discusses NOAA's outlook for an average or slightly below-average hurricane season, while cautioning that "it only takes one" major storm to make it a bad year. Frank also addresses the GFS model's hints at early June tropical development. Too Many Tabs: We explore new moving traffic cameras available on DriveNC.gov, review ongoing I-40 repairs from Helene, and discuss ways the public can provide feedback on NOAA Weather Radio and the COOP observer network. Join us next week when we talk to the Storm Prediction Center about their new severe weather intensity categories!

Laura Donefer is known for artwork that pushes boundaries by exploring memory, assault, bereavement, joy and madness. Celebrated for her innovative, colorful blown glass and flameworked Amulet Baskets, the artist has been using glass as the primary medium in her work for over 40 years, all while teaching, promoting the glass arts worldwide, and producing her unforgettable Glass Fashion Show (GFS). Donefer has produced 15 of her extraordinary fashion shows, many for the Glass Art Society (GAS). In fact, at GAS Murano 2018, her remarkable and ground-breaking event included 33 glass costumes worn by models as they glided past thrilled onlookers through the canals of Murano, Italy.  Award-winning documentary filmmaker David Marshall of Blue Sky Projects Films has undertaken a years-long documentary project dedicated to capturing both the history of Donefer's GFS and the work artists are undertaking to present a captivating and memorable show at GAS's June 2026 conference to be held at the Corning Museum of Glass, Corning, New York. Writes Donefer's assistant and GFS participating artist, Jennifer Hand: "Ten years ago this June, Rik Allen stepped onto a catwalk at the Corning Museum of Glass in a full astronaut getup accompanied by David Bowie's Major Tom and changed my life forever. I found my community in the rapturous throng of creative, compassionate and collaborative humanity who cheered alongside me that night: Die-hard lovers of glass art united by the magnificent spectacle of Laura Donefer's Glass Fashion Show. It was my first Glass Art Society conference, and though the days before the grand finale had been filled with inspiring content and exciting connections, nothing could have prepared me for the cascading emotions I felt witnessing the wild, weird wonder of the artists who had spent years creating costumes for this one-night-only performance. It would have been inconceivable to me at the time, but two short springs later, I danced in my own glass costume on Murano's grand canal to an equally exuberant crowd. It may be challenging for those who have not had the pleasure of attending one of these happenings to fully appreciate their splendor, but for prior participants and audience members alike, the verdict is unanimous - there is nothing on earth like the GFS. Since Donefer hosted the inaugural show at the first Canadian GAS Conference in 1989, she has traveled around the world putting on versions of the event - including several at Corning, Toledo and Toronto, and one particularly raunchy romp in New Orleans. AACG member Beth Hylen, who has been in every glass fashion show except the first, credits the events with transforming her from a quiet librarian to a glassy diva. Hylen describes that experience as a "dream," saying, 'Strutting on the stage is so much fun. The energy behind the scenes is electric, and Laura encourages us to energize our performance on stage. I love working for months creating weird and wonderful wearable glass, and there's nothing like watching the artists who put so much time to create their creations seeing it all come together.' An evening of transcendent beauty is arguably an end goal in itself, but the GFS has impacts far beyond the moment when the last bow has been taken and the last shard of glass swept from the stage. In the years leading up to each fashion show, Donefer provides her encouragement, advice and mentorship to each participant, building a sense of community and modeling her style of unapologetically ebullient leadership to each new generation of GFS artists. GFS veterans seeing each other in the wild at glass world events have a unique bond, and, if we're being fair, an almost evangelical zeal to lure outsiders into the fandom. Neither Donefer nor the models and artists for the performance are compensated for their time, materials or travel to participate - they work their glassy magic into exquisite wearable art out of sheer love of the community and the desire to make the audience gasp in astonished joy.. When Donefer delivers lectures on the history of the Glass Fashion Show, she shares a multitude of stories from her decades leading this singular aspect of the glass field - friendships made, injuries narrowly avoided, and institutional boundaries skirted. Profound storyteller that she is, her lectures are equal parts entertaining and educational, but alone they cannot tell the full story of this cultural phenomenon. Recognizing the magnitude of Donefer's contribution to the trajectory of the glass community, award-winning film maker David Marshall of Blue Sky Projects Films has undertaken a years-long documentary project dedicated to capturing… the Glass Fashion Show…  Marshall has begun filming interviews with Donefer and her participating artists, including teams from Murano, Hilltop Artists in Tacoma and Project Fire in Chicago. Film crews will also be on hand in Corning this June to do cinematic justice to the detail and exquisite skilling of this year's costumes, which have been mandated by Donefer to be the most extravagant ever - headpieces, footwear, and head-to-toe glass on every model. Between the passion and labor of the artists and Marshall's thoughtful filmmaking, the documentary will properly honor and record the unparalleled contributions Donefer has made to glass history."

#863 Five friends, fresh out of high school, pooled their savings, stayed up until 5 AM prepping food, and on their very first night selling tacos, sold out in under 90 minutes — here's exactly how they did it! In this episode, host Brien Gearin sits down with Matthew Berda, co-founder of Ponchos Tacos, a seasonal mobile taco business based in Richmond, BC. Matthew shares how he and four friends pooled their savings right out of high school to launch a food stand at the Richmond Night Market — North America's largest night market — and sold out within their first 90 minutes. Now in their fourth year, the business has grown from a single tent to a multi-trailer operation pulling in multiple six figures over just a few months each summer. Matthew breaks down startup costs ($25–40K), food sourcing through distributors like GFS and Sysco, navigating health permits and business licenses, keeping food costs around 30%, and using Square for point of sale. He also touches on their Instagram and TikTok marketing strategy, private catering events, and managing a lean team across multiple locations on a single weekend! What we discuss with Matthew: + Sold out in 90 minutes on night one + $25–40K startup costs + 30% food cost target + Sourcing through GFS, Sysco, and Costco + Health permits and food safety plans + Square for cash and card payments + Instagram and TikTok for marketing + Scaling from one tent to multiple trailers + Private catering alongside public markets + Friends as a flexible, low-cost labor pool Thank you, Matthew!

For a demo of the Behavioral Governance Special Purpose Avatar - contact Eric Dyson at edyson@90northllc.com Don Trone, GFS™, is the CEO of the Behavioral Governance Institute (BGI), where he leads the development of Special Purpose Avatars (SPAs) designed to accelerate the professional development of leaders, stewards, and fiduciaries with governance responsibility. Widely known as the “Father of Fiduciary,” he has spent decades shaping fiduciary standards and governance practices. He was the founding CEO of fi360, the Center for Board Certified Fiduciaries, and the Foundation for Fiduciary Studies, and previously directed the Institute for Leadership at the U.S. Coast Guard Academy.A former U.S. Coast Guard helicopter rescue pilot, Don brings real-world experience from high-stakes environments to his focus on clarity, foresight, and accountability in governance. He has also testified before the U.S. Senate Finance Committee and the Department of Labor on fiduciary best practices.In this episode, Eric and Don Trone discuss:The origins of the Behavioral Governance Institute and why fiduciary standards alone are not enoughHow leadership behaviors and decision-making frameworks influence retirement outcomesThe development of “Special Purpose Avatars” is designed to support governance professionalsHow AI-powered avatars can deliver personalized professional development and trainingKey Takeaways:Behavioral governance expands the traditional fiduciary framework. Instead of focusing only on procedural prudence, it integrates leadership, judgment, ethics, and decision-making into governance responsibilities.AI-powered avatars are emerging as powerful tools for professional development. By curating expert knowledge in closed systems, these avatars help professionals strengthen their understanding of complex governance and fiduciary responsibilities.The future of professional education is shifting from traditional classroom-style programs to on-demand learning experiences. AI avatars enable a “Netflix-style” training model where professionals control when, how, and what they learn.Mastery-based learning loops represent a major advancement in professional education. Instead of allowing professionals to pass certification tests with partial understanding, avatars keep users in a training loop until they demonstrate full mastery of the subject.“If we had a better understanding of how certain leadership behaviors impact the quality of decision-making outcomes, we could have a material positive impact on the management of investment decisions.” - Don TroneConnect with Don Trone:Website: https://www.3ethos.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/don-trone-89873013/ Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: contact@90northllc.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information and content of this podcast are general in nature and are provided solely for educational and informational purposes.

WindBorne Systems is transforming global weather forecasting by deploying long-duration weather balloons that fly for weeks instead of hours. What began as a Stanford Student Space Initiative project has scaled to 100 balloons aloft simultaneously, targeting 500 by end of next year, with an end goal of 10,000 balloons monitoring Earth's atmosphere. In this episode of BUILDERS, I sat down with John Dean, Co-Founder and CEO of WindBorne Systems, to explore how the company secured its first government contract in under three years without lobbyists, achieved 4x annual manufacturing growth, and built Weather Mesh—an AI weather model that outperforms competitors from Google DeepMind. Topics Discussed: The technical evolution from Stanford project to operational constellation of altitude-controlled balloons Strategic decision to pursue government revenue before building B2B forecasting products Navigating Defense Innovation Unit and Air Force Lifecycle Management Center procurement as a founder Timeline from founding to first grants (within six months) and first data delivery contract (two and a half years) Current roughly 50/50 revenue split between civilian agencies (NOAA, international weather services) and Department of Defense Building Weather Mesh after Huawei's Pangu Weather validated end-to-end AI forecasting viability Transitioning from founder-led sales by promoting a Palantir hire from proposal writer to public sector growth leader The 30-year vision of millions of fingernail-sized atmospheric sensors creating a planetary nervous system GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Study the bureaucracy's incentive structures before pitching product value: John spent years mapping how government procurement actually works rather than leading with product capabilities. The critical insight: in DoD sales, the warfighter (end user) doesn't control purchasing decisions. Success requires understanding each stakeholder's specific mandate and aligning your solution to their organizational incentives, not just operational needs. For civilian agencies like NOAA, the dynamics differ entirely. Founders entering govtech should invest 6-12 months learning procurement mechanics before expecting revenue. Use government contracts as non-dilutive scaling capital for hardware businesses: WindBorne secured SBIR grants within six months, then landed their first Air Force data delivery contract through Defense Innovation Unit at the two-and-a-half-year mark. John explicitly treated early grants as equivalent to venture funding but without equity dilution. For companies building physical infrastructure at scale (satellites, hardware networks, manufacturing operations), government contracts provide the runway to reach technical milestones that unlock larger B2B opportunities. This sequencing—government funding first, then B2B products built on that foundation—proves more capital-efficient than attempting to raise massive venture rounds upfront for unproven hardware. Integrate with legacy systems rather than attempting wholesale replacement: WindBorne doesn't aim to replace the 1,000 radiosondes launched daily worldwide—they're expanding coverage from the current 15% of Earth (where humans can launch traditional balloons) to 100%. The hardware is revolutionary (weeks of flight versus two hours), but the go-to-market integrates into existing weather agency workflows and feeds into established models like GFS and ECMWF. This approach accelerated adoption because agencies could add WindBorne data without overhauling their entire forecasting infrastructure. The displacement of radiosondes becomes economically inevitable long-term, but only after proving the system at scale. Move fast once adjacent technology validates your thesis: WindBorne wasn't investing in AI-based weather forecasting until Huawei's Pangu Weather paper demonstrated that end-to-end neural weather models could compete with physics-based simulations. Once that validation appeared, John's team moved immediately—adopting the open architecture and expanding it into Weather Mesh before the approach became widely adopted. The lesson isn't to wait for competitors, but to monitor adjacent technological developments and move decisively when validation emerges. They built a top-performing model by being early to a proven approach, not first to an unproven one. Hire for mid-level roles and promote based on demonstrated judgment: John hired Dana from Palantir as a proposal writer, not as a sales executive. He watched her demonstrate strong opinions that consistently proved correct, then promoted her to build and lead the entire public sector growth organization. This internal promotion model worked better than external executive hires because the person already understood WindBorne's technology, customers, and internal culture. For specialized domains like government sales, bringing in experienced operators at individual contributor levels and promoting them as they prove their judgment builds more effective organizations than hiring executives to parachute in. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Remember how, before Hurricane Michael, when the storm season came around we only gave it our mild interest. Post-Michael, I haven't yet met someone who doesn't follow Mike's Spaghetti models with grave intentionality between June and November. Experience and expectation really goes a long way in shaping our responses to the warnings we get from NOAA.As we continue our study in Matthew this week we'll be reading chapter 3. We're going to be introduced to a human GFS model – John the Baptist, who will be announcing the arrival of the Messiah and the launch of God's kingdom invasion.As you read John's message, what does his major theme seem to be? What is he calling people to do? What do you think his instructions meant to a Jewish person living in the first century? What does that mean to us, as 21st Century Americans? What sort of radical changes have taken place in your life as a result of embracing the Good News of Jesus?The Pharisees and Sadducees show up too, and John doesn't give them the greeting they are accustomed to. What does he seem to highlight as the problem with these religious leaders? Why does he call them “the offspring of snakes”? Thinking back through the Biblical narrative, do you remember a forecast of “the offspring of the serpent” bruising someone's heel? There's going to be a lot to unpack in this section that I'm really excited about!When Jesus shows up he does something that surprises everyone, including John. He gets in line for his turn to be baptized. John is nonplussed. “You're the Messiah, come to save us from sin…I need to be baptized by you…what do YOU need to repent of?” It's a puzzling scene to this day. Jesus said he needed to do it to, in the Greek, “fulfill all righteousness”. In other words – the righteousness, the setting things right that God intends comes through a Messiah who stands in the river with humanity, identifying with them, protecting them in their corrupted, vulnerable state. What does this tell us about what it means to “fulfill righteousness”?I'm so stoked to dig into this text – Hope to see you Sunday!Click here to view a pdf of the teaching slideshow.

The legislation would clarify SAF eligibility in the USDA's current bioenergy programs and expand markets for crops used in SAF production. It would also clarify the federal definition of SAF for USDA purposes and promote more collaboration on aviation biofuels within the USDA. Six senators from the Midwest reintroduced the bill. Agriculture, aviation, and energy groups have all expressed support for the legislation. The reintroduction came one day after President Donald Trump signed an executive order freezing any new federal rules for 60 days, including the 45Z tax credit guidance.USDA reported a flash sale of corn on Wednesday. US exporters sold 136,000mt (5mil bushels) of corn to unknown destinations for delivery during the 2024/2025 marketing year. Current marketing year corn sales are the third best in the last ten years.China has suspended Brazilian soybean shipments from five companies. China's General Administration of Customs halted the shipments after finding pesticides and pests during a routine inspection. Authorities did not release the number of cargoes or the volume of soybeans affected by the suspension. However, the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture reported that the ban is not expected to affect Brazil's overall soybean exports to China. The ministry is expected to provide China with the necessary information to lift the temporary suspensions. The firms included in the ban are some of the largest soybean suppliers to China.Weather forecasts for southern Brazil and Argentina have turned slightly wetter. Rains are slated to return to southern Brazil and northern Argentina by Sunday. Southern Brazil, in particular, should see widespread coverage during the next 5 days. The 5-10 day period introduces slightly better rainfall for key Argentina soybean areas. This morning's extended GFS model, however, is again drier for much of Argentina's soybean country. Despite the rain, parts of Argentina, including Buenos Aires, may remain drier than normal.President Donald Trump is pressuring Russia to negotiate an end to the war with Ukraine. On Wednesday, Trump said that Russia needs to make a deal to end the war, or the US will impose tariffs, higher taxes, and sanctions on Russian imports. The same would apply to other countries providing financial support to Russia. It's unclear which specific Russian goods would be targeted, but Russia's main oil producers could be included. Tariffs, however, won't be overly impactful given that the US only imported about $4.6 billion worth of Russian goods in 2023, accounting for only 0.2% of total imports.President Donald Trump's nominee for Agriculture Secretary previously opposed ethanol and farm subsidies. Brooke Rollins served as president and CEO of the Texas Public Policy Foundation from 2003 to 2018. During that time, the organization claimed that government support for ethanol led to an increase in emissions and a rise in food and fuel prices. In 2016, while Rollins remained in her position with the nonprofit, the group advocated for the elimination of farm subsidies. Despite Rollins' controversial history on policies affecting farmers, more than 400 state and national agricultural groups endorsed her to lead the USDA.
