Podcasts about meteorologists

Guest: Amber Sullins, Chief Meteorologist at ABC15When most people think about dangerous weather, they think about hurricanes, tornadoes, or blizzards. But in the deserts of the Southwest, one of the most impactful—and often overlooked—hazards can arrive as a towering wall of dust. Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by Amber Sullins, a longtime Arizona meteorologist who has spent her career helping people navigate everything from extreme heat and monsoon storms to the massive dust storms that have become synonymous with life in the desert Southwest. We'll talk about her journey forecasting some of the country's most unique weather, and we'll take a deep dive into the development of the new PHX-DUST scale—a groundbreaking effort designed to classify dust storms and better communicate their impacts to the public. From the science behind the scale to the challenges of translating complex research into actionable information, we'll explore how meteorologists are working to improve awareness and resilience in the face of one of Arizona's signature weather threats.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Dust Storms in the Southwest01:00 Amber Sullins' Journey in Meteorology02:21 Unique Weather Challenges in Arizona03:22 Forecasting Monsoon and Dust Storms05:05 Factors Influencing Dust Storm Severity07:16 Impact of Water Scarcity on Dust Storms08:40 Health Risks from Dust Storm Particulates10:33 Types of Dust Storms and Their Detection14:15 Break 114:18 Development of the Phoenix Dust Scale17:02 Using Air Quality Data for Dust Severity20:27 Safety Tips for Dust Storms22:11 Assessing Dust Storm Intensity Quickly24:17 Applicability of the Dust Scale Elsewhere25:19 Break 228:37 Sharing the Dust Scale with the Public30:01 Acceptance and Validation of the Scale32:41 Future Weather Challenges in Arizona33:40 Upcoming Weather Events and OutlookResourcesphoenixdust.asu.edu - https://phoenixdust.asu.eduAmerican Meteorological Society - https://www.ametsoc.orgArizona State University - https://www.asu.eduSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Lorenzo Fiori reports a historic heatwave has pushed the Po River to record lows, devastating Italy's agricultural heartland and water supplies for power stations. The ecological crisis includes an invasion of blue crabs, which are destroying clam populations and disrupting local cuisine. Meteorologists struggle to forecast as traditional weather models fail in the face of climate change. Tourists are encouraged to seek the cooler, historical beauty of Noto, Sicily. (14)1729 ROME

SCHEDULE FOR THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 7-31-20261790 SOUTH HOLLANDJeff Bliss reports a refrigeration fire in Boyle Heights has released a toxic stench and caused an explosion in local rat and insect populations. Residents remain displaced due to overpowering toxic aftereffects. Simultaneously, a massive heat dome and hurricane-driven surf are hitting the Southwest. L.A. County lifeguards performed nearly 1,200 rescues last Saturday, facing dangerous conditions and substance abuse issues on crowded beaches escaping the intense heat. (1)Jeff Bliss notes Governor Gavin Newsom is preparing for a 2028 presidential run, but past controversies are resurfacing. A Vanity Fair article by Ruby Rippey-Tourk, his former mistress and the wife of his then-campaign manager, accuses Newsom of being "careless" and "cruel" during their 2007 affair. His wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, is also being criticized for shaming Rippey-Tourk, leading to questions about the Newsoms' commitment to women's advocacy. (2)Richard Epstein examines New York City's proposed "pied-à-terre tax," which targets non-primary residences but threatens middle-class and working homeowners. Epstein argues the tax is unfairly structured, hitting condominiums at five times the rate of houses. The complex valuation process creates a "vicious circle" that could plummet property values. Consequently, wealthy residents are already fleeing, resulting in a $12 billion annual revenue loss for the city. (3)Richard Epstein turns to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, under fire for signing a document that allegedly exempts the President from IRS scrutiny regarding past and future taxes. Epstein characterizes this as a "scandalous" misuse of public trust and a misapplication of the law. He argues that if the President used his office for private financial benefit, it constitutes an impeachable offense, while Blanche should face potential disbarment. (4)Jim McTague takes a road trip through Owensboro, Kentucky, revealing a "K-shaped" economy where retail business is "dead" for blue-collar residents relying on federal aid. Conversely, Jeffersonville, Ohio, is experiencing a "gold rush" as Amazon and Honda build massive data and battery centers. However, some local residents feel overwhelmed by progress, lacking the imagination or education to capitalize on these high-tech industrial shifts and training opportunities. (5)Jim McTague reports that in Lancaster County, Republican representatives are introducing legislation that adds red tape and taxes to data centers, contradicting traditional pro-growth principles. While the Democratic-led Lancaster Cityhas embraced a lucrative data center deal, blue-collar "Trump country" boroughs remain fearful of the future. Despite these tensions, the local economy remains "steady" due to a diversified base including agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and senior citizen spending. (6)Peter Huessy explains the foundation of U.S. nuclear strategy is the triad, ensuring launch capabilities from land, sea, and air. Developed after the 1957 Sputnik launch, this framework replaced "massive retaliation" with "flexible response." Huessy explains that this survivable deterrent prevents adversaries from achieving a total victory with a single strike. Despite calls for unilateral disarmament, the triad remains essential for holding at risk what adversaries value most. (7)Peter Huessy warns the U.S. now faces a tri-polar nuclear threat from Russia and China, both of which are modernizing their arsenals "gangbusters." Meanwhile, U.S. systems haven't been updated in 40 years, leaving the deterrent "fragile." Allied nations in Asia, specifically South Korea and Japan, are increasingly questioning the U.S. nuclear umbrella and considering their own deterrents as regional tensions and Chinese missile capabilities grow. (8)Henry Sokolski reports a proposed nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia is causing alarm due to potential uranium enrichment capabilities. Sokolski warns that nuclear fuel-making brings a nation dangerously close to developing a bomb. Saudi Arabia's refusal to accept advanced "protocol one" inspections is a major "red flag." Furthermore, the deal risks overturning 50 years of global non-proliferation policy, potentially encouraging other nations like Iran to demand equal treatment. (9)Henry Sokolski notes Senator John Kennedy has emerged as a dogged opponent of granting Saudi Arabia enrichment authority, labeling it a "bad idea." The agreement will automatically go into force within 90 legislative days unless Congress passes a veto-proof resolution against it. Kennedy's vocal stance may rally other senators to stop the package, potentially forcing the White House to renegotiate the deal to prevent spreading dangerous nuclear capabilities. (10)Gene Marks reports accountants in California are grappling with AI integration, viewing it as a productivity tool rather than a replacement for human consultation. Meanwhile, the broader economy remains resilient; manufacturing has expanded for five consecutive months despite high gas prices and elevated interest rates. Marks highlights that businesses are "rolling with inflation" and increasing orders for durable goods, indicating high underlying confidence despite stock market volatility. (11)Gene Marks compares public protests against data centers to the 19th-century opposition to railroads. While critics worry about land and water usage, Marks argues these facilities are imperative infrastructure for the information age and the AI revolution. Just as railroads enabled 20th-century American power, data centers are the means for moving information. Ceding this development would allow rivals like China or Russia to dominate the future economy. (12)Veronique de Rugy warns new administration rules replace flexible status for foreign students with fixed four-year periods, targeting the "best educated people on Earth." De Rugy warns this policy dissuades future scientists and innovators from choosing the U.S. Restricting these STEM graduates could cost the economy between $200 billion and $400 billion in lost GDP over the next decade, while potentially causing severe long-term labor shortages. (13)Lorenzo Fiori reports a historic heatwave has pushed the Po River to record lows, devastating Italy's agricultural heartland and water supplies for power stations. The ecological crisis includes an invasion of blue crabs, which are destroying clam populations and disrupting local cuisine. Meteorologists struggle to forecast as traditional weather models fail in the face of climate change. Tourists are encouraged to seek the cooler, historical beauty of Noto, Sicily. (14)Bob Zimmerman reports SpaceX's Starship successfully floated for a week after splashdown, providing invaluable data for rapid reusability. The company further cemented its market dominance with a $1.6 billion Space Force contract, while competitors remain grounded. Additionally, startups are emerging to solve technical hurdles for orbital data centers, such as advanced heat radiation. These advancements indicate that the future of massive data processing may eventually move into permanent space orbit. (15)Bob Zimmerman notes China continues the dangerous practice of dropping uncontrolled rocket debris on its citizens, forcing them to hide in tunnels. In the commercial sector, the startup Catalyst attempted a high-speed satellite rescue mission, demonstrating rapid launch capabilities despite technical failures. Meanwhile, astronomers have identified a rare midsize black hole, a discovery that will likely be expanded upon as the new Rubin telescope begins its sky surveys. (16)Corrections applied, pending your confirmation: Ruby Rippey-Tourk (transcribed as "Ruby Rippy," segment 2), Todd Blanche (transcribed as "Mr. Blanch," segment 4), Rubin telescope (transcribed as "Reuben," segment 16 — the Vera C. Rubin Observatory), and "burrows" → "boroughs" in segment 6. One to flag: this batch has Lorenzo Fiori (segment 14), but an earlier batch had him as "Lorenzo Fiato" — let me know which spelling is correct and I'll log it for good.

Gusty wind, low humidity, temperatures pushing 100 degrees and dry fuels will create critical fire weather conditions in northwest and west-central Montana Saturday.

Guest: Dr. Michael Brennan, Director of NOAA's National Hurricane CenterThe peak of hurricane season is right around the corner—and whether you live along the coast or hundreds of miles inland, what happens in the tropics can have real impacts on your life. The question is: what do you actually need to know before the season really ramps up? Today on Weather Geeks, we're getting a preview straight from the source. Dr. Michael Brennan, Director of the National Hurricane Center, joins us to walk through what forecasters are watching this year, how hurricane prediction continues to improve, and where the biggest challenges still remain. We'll also talk about new tools and products coming out of the National Hurricane Center, how technology is shaping the future of forecasting, and what all of this means for you when the next storm is on the horizon.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Hurricane Season and Its Impacts02:45 Understanding Tropical Storm Arthur and Its Effects05:41 El Niño's Influence on Hurricane Activity08:34 The Importance of Preparedness and Messaging11:59 Evolving Forecasting Techniques and Challenges14:15 Break 114:40 Advancements in Predictive Modeling and AI17:44 The Role of Communication in Weather Forecasting20:46 Inland Hurricane Threats and Their Impacts23:51 Future Directions in Hurricane Research and Forecasting26:54 Conclusion and Final Thoughts on Hurricane Preparedness26:58 Break 227:09 Conclusion and Final Thoughts on Hurricane PreparednesResourcesNOAA National Hurricane Center - https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/Google DeepMind - https://deepmind.com/Hurricane Forecasting Models (HWRF, HAFS) - https://www.nco.ncep.noaa.gov/pmb/products/hwrf/Guest LinksTwitter - https://twitter.com/NHC_AtlanticLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-brennan-5a90322b2See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Meteorologist are warning people to find air conditioning and drink plenty of water as a part of a major heat wave is hitting the Wasatch front...  we'll get into why the overnight temperatures are causing the most concern. Greg shares his closing arguments.

 - TPS for Haiti expires today — what it means for 300,000+ immigrants  Jim Bennett co-hosts with Greg Skordas today, Jim and Greg catch up on how they spent the Pioneer Holiday Weekend.. Temporary Protected Status for more than 300,000 Haitians living in the U.S. is set to expire today after the Supreme Court cleared the way last month for the Trump administration to end the program. Jim and Greg break down what TPS actually is, which countries are affected, the broader impact on communities and employers, and what this means for immigrants from other nations still under the designation.      - From Seattle to Berlin: Deadly attacks rock a weekend of celebration  It was a violent weekend at home and abroad. In Seattle, three people are dead and four wounded after gunfire erupted at the Bite of Seattle food festival near the Space Needle on Sunday evening. Police say two men opened fire on each other, catching bystanders in the crossfire. One suspect is in custody; a second remains at large. Overseas, a van-ramming and stabbing attack at Berlin's Pride parade killed one woman and injured 29 others in what German authorities are calling an Islamist terror attack. The suspect was later tracked down and shot dead by police. Greg and Jim discuss the latest.      – The WHCD redo and the weirdness that came with it  The White House Correspondents' Dinner got a do-over Friday night after that armed security breach shut down the original back in April — and things got awkward. Jim and Greg lay out the moments from the President that shocked them most.      – The ADA at 36: What's better, what's broken, and what's next for disability rights  This weekend marked the 36th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. In this special hour we take an look at how far the country has come in protecting the rights of Americans with disabilities, where progress has stalled, and what may have gotten worse.  Nate Crippes of the Disability Law Center of Utah joins on how the legal landscape has shifted since the ADA became law, Matthew Wappett, executive director of Utah State University's Institute for Disability Research, Policy, & Practice, on the big-picture challenges still facing the disability community, and our very own Holly Richardson — a mom with several kids with special needs — on what the fight for access and inclusion actually looks like day to day.     – The Iran war pause: What's next?  After 13 consecutive nights of U.S. airstrikes on Iran, the bombs have stopped — at least for now. Both sides paused attacks over the weekend as regional mediators push to revive negotiations. Greg and Jim share their analysis on the situation and where things could go from here.      - How Utah is trying to lower its criminal recidivism rate  A report has found while Utah has fewer people under "correctional control" than much of the nation, it's spending more per inmate than neighboring states. Bridger Beal Cvetko with KSL.com joins to help walk through this report and why it matters.      - Fourth firefighter dies following Knowles fire burnover | Timp fire arson suspect faces judge  The wildland firefighting community is mourning again. Nate Matthews, 43, a 10-year veteran from Lincoln, Nebraska, has died from burn injuries suffered during the June 27 burnover on the Utah-Colorado border — making him the fourth firefighter killed in the same incident. Three other crew members died at the scene, and a fifth remains hospitalized. The Knowles Fire has since been overtaken by the Snyder Fire.  Then, we turn to a local arson case: a judge will consider Tuesday whether to grant bail to a West Jordan man accused of setting the Timp Fire that evacuated the Timpooneke Campground in American Fork Canyon. Greg shares the latest and what is to be expected in court.       – Concerns rise around Utah's overnight temperatures + closing arguments  Meteorologist are warning people to find air conditioning and drink plenty of water as a part of a major heat wave is hitting the Wasatch front...  we'll get into why the overnight temperatures are causing the most concern. Greg shares his closing arguments.

Jeremy Zakis reports meteorologists predict a record-breaking Super El Niño, which is expected to cause extreme heat and unpredictable drought patterns globally. Currently, Sydney's winter is unusually cold and dry, causing physical discomfort for residents. This lack of rainfall threatens the Warragamba Dam supply and points toward a dangerous, early fire season starting in September. This irregular "Godzilla" climate pattern deviates sharply from the typical mild, wet Australian winters usually experienced. (1)

Guest: Dr. Mike Farrar, Booz Allen HamiltonWeather forecasting has come a long way—from hand-drawn maps and limited observations to a world driven by supercomputers, satellites, and real-time data. But as technology continues to evolve, so does the challenge of making forecasts faster, smarter, and more useful for the people who rely on them every day. Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by Dr. Mike Farrar, whose career has spanned research, operations, and leadership across the meteorological community. His company has been tasked to help modernize the National Weather Service, and with that he's helping shape what the future of forecasting could look like for both meteorologists and the public alike. We'll talk about the biggest challenges facing weather operations today, how emerging technologies like AI and cloud computing are changing the forecasting landscape, and why communication and public trust remain just as important as the science itself.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Career Background of Dr. Mike Farrar01:30 The Evolution of Weather Forecasting Technologies04:18 Transformational Advances in Meteorology09:15 The Private Sector and Meteorology's Growth12:16 Break 112:19 The Impact of AI and Cloud Computing19:28 Modernizing the National Weather Service22:55 The Role of Human Forecasters in the Age of AI26:51 Break 228:01 The North Star of Meteorology: Science and Service30:18 Skills for Future Meteorologists33:50 Embracing Change in the Meteorological Field34:29 Closing Remarks and Resources ResourcesBooz Allen Hamilton - https://www.boozallen.comNOAA's National Centers for Environmental Prediction - https://www.weather.gov/ncep/American Meteorological Society - https://www.ametsoc.orgAWIPS (Advanced Weather Information Processing System) - https://vlab.noaa.gov/web/nws-heritage/-/introducing-awipsNCAR (National Center for Atmospheric Research) - https://ncar.ucar.eduGuest linksLinkedIn - linkedin.com/in/mikefarrar-wxSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Northern China is entering its most critical flood-control period, with meteorologists warning that an early rainy season and increasingly volatile weather patterns could heighten the risk of severe flooding in the weeks ahead.我国北方已进入防汛关键期，气象专家提醒，汛期提前、天气形势愈发多变，未来数周发生严重洪涝灾害的风险将有所上升。The rainy season in North China officially began on July 10, eight days earlier than the long-term average, according to the National Climate Center.国家气候中心数据显示，华北地区7月10日正式入汛，较常年平均时间提前8天。"The rainy season this year has arrived both early and with remarkable intensity," said Chen Lijuan, chief forecaster at the center.国家气候中心首席预报员陈丽娟表示：“今年汛期不仅来得早，降雨强度也十分突出。”She said an active Northeast China cold vortex — a persistent upper-level weather system that often triggers prolonged rainfall — has contributed to unusually heavy precipitation across northeastern and northern China since June.她介绍，东北冷涡活动频繁，这一持久的高空天气系统极易引发持续性降雨，自6月以来，我国东北、华北地区降水便异常偏多。The rainy season in Northeast China began on June 4, nine days earlier than average. Since June 1, rainfall has been well above normal across most of the region and North China.东北6月4日入汛，较常年提前9天。6月1日至今，东北大部、华北地区降雨量均显著高于常年均值。The early onset follows months of exceptionally heavy rainfall that have already left much of the region saturated before the traditional peak flood season.早在主汛期来临前，连续数月的强降雨已让北方大部分区域土壤含水量趋于饱和，如今汛期再度提前到来。From April 1 to July 12, average precipitation across northern China reached 228.6 millimeters, 23.1 percent above the long-term average and the highest for the same period in the past decade, the center said.国家气候中心称，4月1日至7月12日，北方地区平均降水量达228.6毫米，较常年同期偏多23.1%，为近十年同期最高值。In North China, average rainfall totaled 288.4 mm, 62.5 percent above normal and the highest for the same period since records began to be maintained.其中华北地区平均降雨量288.4毫米，较常年偏多62.5%，创下有气象记录以来同期降水极值。Hebei province and Tianjin both recorded their wettest April 1 to July 12 period since meteorological records began in 1961.河北、天津两地4月1日至7月12日的降雨量，均为1961年有完整气象观测以来同期最高。Large parts of Hebei have received more than 50 percent above-average rainfall, while some eastern areas of the province recorded as much as 12 times their normal precipitation. Much of Liaoning province has also received more than twice its normal rainfall.河北大部地区降水较常年偏多五成以上，省内东部局部区域降雨量更是达到常年同期的12倍；辽宁大部分区域降雨量也达到常年两倍以上。The unusually wet start has heightened concerns during the main flood season, which runs roughly from July 16 to Aug 15 and is traditionally the most challenging period for flood control.降水异常偏多的前期气候背景，让主汛期防汛压力陡增。主汛期大致为7月16日至8月15日，历来是防汛工作难度最大的阶段。About one-third of North China's annual precipitation typically falls during those four weeks.华北全年约三分之一的降水都会集中在这四周内。Forecasters said the saturated ground could leave many river basins and mountainous areas more vulnerable to flooding if additional rounds of intense rainfall develop.预报人员表示，土壤含水量已趋于饱和，若后续再遭遇多轮强降雨，各大流域与山区将极易发生洪涝。The center forecasts above-normal precipitation across most of northern China during the upcoming flood-control period, with rainfall expected to exceed seasonal averages by 20 to 50 percent in parts of Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Liaoning, Heilongjiang and the Inner Mongolia autonomous region.国家气候中心预测，本轮防汛期北方大部降水仍将偏多，北京、天津、河北、辽宁、黑龙江、内蒙古部分地区降雨量较常年同期偏多20%至50%。Meteorologists warned that some areas could experience extreme downpours capable of triggering floods, flash floods and landslides.气象专家警示，局部地区将出现特大暴雨，极易诱发洪水、山洪以及山体滑坡。"The background of climate warming is making weather more extreme and more complex, while climate patterns themselves are changing," said Chen Tao, chief forecaster at the China Meteorological Administration.国家气象中心首席预报员陈涛表示：“气候变暖大背景下，天气极端性、复杂性持续加剧，各类气候模态也在发生变化。”"As a result, monitoring and forecasting have become more difficult. High-impact extreme weather events are occurring more frequently, often exceeding historical experience and traditional design standards," he said.他说：“这也给监测预报工作带来更大挑战，高影响极端天气频发，其强度时常突破历史纪录与传统设防标准。”Chen said the interaction between global warming and large-scale climate patterns such as El Nino means weather disasters are increasingly occurring simultaneously across multiple regions rather than as isolated events.陈涛指出，全球变暖叠加厄尔尼诺等大尺度气候系统的共同作用，气象灾害不再局限于单一区域，多地同步受灾的情况愈发多见。In response, flood prevention efforts will focus on strengthening weather monitoring and early warning systems in northern river basins while improving coordination among meteorological agencies, the administration said.国家气象局表示，针对这一形势，防汛工作将重点强化北方流域气象监测预警体系，完善各气象部门联动协同机制。Authorities have been urged to intensify monitoring during high-risk periods, such as overnight heavy rainfall, and strengthen emergency coordination for flash floods, geological disasters and flooding along small and medium-sized rivers.各地主管部门被要求加强夜间暴雨等高风险时段的监测值守，完善山洪、地质灾害、中小河流洪水的应急联动处置机制。Residents are advised to pay close attention to weather alerts and avoid entering mountainous areas and river valleys during and immediately after heavy rain, as rapidly developing flash floods are among the deadliest hazards during North China's rainy season.气象部门提醒市民密切关注气象预警，暴雨期间及雨后切勿进入山区、河谷地带；突发性山洪是华北汛期致死风险最高的灾害类型之一。volatile /ˈvɒlətaɪl/多变的precipitation /prɪˌsɪpɪˈteɪʃn/降水量saturated /ˈsætʃəreɪtɪd/饱和的landslide /ˈlændslaɪd/山体滑坡simultaneous /ˌsɪmlˈteɪniəs/同步发生的geological /ˌdʒiːəˈlɒdʒɪkl/地质的

On this episode I chatted with Lacey and Hank alongside cohost Matt Randall. Lacey is an Okie through and through. She grew up in the small town of Kiefer. Always fascinated with the sky, lightning, hail, and, yes, tornadoes. Most of her life she knew what she wanted to do when she grew up. She wanted to be a meteorologist. Lacey attended the University of Oklahoma, interned under the legend Gary England. Lacey's first job landed her in Sioux City, IA. After her time away, Lacey made it back to Oklahoma joining the News 9 weather team in 2011. Hank Brown attributes his passion for severe weather to his father who exposed him to it at an early age. One of Hank's first memories is standing on the porch watching a tornado with his dad while the rest of the family was in the basement calling them crazy. Hank's love of photography and severe weather brought him to NEWS 9 as a StormTracker in 1998. Since then he has traveled thousands of miles chasing tornadoes for Gary England and the NEWS 9 weather team. Hank has witnessed countless tornadoes including the May 3, 1999 tornado in his own neighborhood in Moore. Hank's chase partner is his wife Patty. https://www.instagram.com/okstormchaser/ https://www.instagram.com/lswope/ Huge thank you to our sponsors.

Guest: Dr. Jennifer Francis, Woodwell Climate Research CenterWhen we think about the Arctic, it's easy to picture a remote landscape of sea ice and polar bears. But what happens in the far north doesn't stay there. As the Arctic continues to warm at an unprecedented pace, scientists are uncovering how those changes may be influencing weather patterns across the Northern Hemisphere—from prolonged heat waves and persistent droughts to heavy rainfall and unusual swings in the jet stream. Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by atmospheric scientist Dr. Jennifer Francis, whose pioneering research has helped shape our understanding of the connection between Arctic climate change and the behavior of the jet stream. We'll explore why the Arctic is warming so rapidly, how those changes can ripple through the atmosphere, and what they may mean for the persistent weather patterns we've seen in recent years—including the extreme heat that has gripped much of Europe this summer.Chapters00:00 Dr. Jennifer Francis's background and interest in weather05:22 Jet stream patterns and their role in extreme weather13:21 Break 114:31 Mechanisms of Arctic amplification and feedbacks22:57 Stratospheric polar vortex and winter weather effects25:04 Break 225:58 Summer jet stream behavior and climate connections32:08 Ocean heat waves and their influence on jet stream patterns34:33 Current research and future challenges in Arctic climate studies37:06 Closing remarks and resourcesResourcesWoodwell Climate Research Center - https://www.woodwellclimate.org/Jennifer Francis - Research Profile - https://www.woodwellclimate.org/our-scientists/jennifer-francis/Clausius-Clapeyron Relationship - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clausius%E2%80%93Clapeyron_relation Guest linksTwitter - https://x.com/WoodwellClimate https://x.com/JFrancisClimateResearch Center - https://www.woodwellclimate.org/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Plus, Dylan Dreyer from the Today Show joins the show to talk about the chemistry behind morning television, karaoke, Fourth of July fireworks, dealing with people who blame meteorologists for bad weather, parenting, and much more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Guest: Dr. Jennifer Collins & Dr. Nadia BloemendaalWhen it comes to hurricanes, we often rely on a familiar scale to understand their strength — categories based largely on wind speed. But anyone who's experienced a storm knows that impacts go far beyond just how fast the winds are blowing. Today, we're joined by Jennifer Collins and Nadia Bloemendaal, whose work is helping to rethink how we model and measure tropical cyclones. They're the minds behind the STORM model, a powerful tool for simulating thousands of storms across the globe, and the developers of the Tropical Cyclone Severity Scale — a new way of looking at storm risk that goes beyond traditional categories. In this episode, we'll explore how large-scale modeling is changing our understanding of hurricane risk, why current classification systems may fall short, and how new approaches could improve the way we communicate danger and prepare for future storms.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the New Storm Model00:20 The Storm Model's Impact on Various Sectors01:02 Challenges in Developing a Global Storm Model02:21 Modeling Hazards Beyond Wind: Rain and Surge04:31 Motivation for a New Hurricane Severity Scale06:42 Limitations of the Wind-Only Scale08:35 The New Scale: Incorporating Multiple Hazards10:27 Break 111:28 The Concept of a Category 6 Storm13:05 Public Perception and Education Strategies15:22 Localized and Personalized Risk Communication17:27 Real-World Applications and Case Studies19:20 Future Directions and Climate Change Impacts21:54 Inertia and Adoption Challenges in Meteorology23:49 Break 225:00 Public Perception of Storm Categories27:33 The Path Toward Standardization and Adoption30:12 Future Collaborations and Final ThoughtsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
