January 16, 2025 Could California wildfires happen here? [Ep. 519]
With thousands of acres burning near Los Angeles, California, the Carolina Weather Group examines whether the California Wildfires could happen here in the Carolinas. What are the conditions that make fires spread, such as wind, temperature and humidity? Plus, what key research is being done right here in the Carolinas to help keep people safe from fires? We revisit the studies of IBHS.
Plus, some of the coldest air of the season is headed this way next week. Could it bring more snow with it? We're taking an early look at the winter weather forecast.

December 14, 2024 Live from Chimney Rock and Lake Lure after Helene: What we found | Ep. 517
#northcarolina #southcarolina #weather #ncwx #scwx #podcast
After Helene, the communities of Chimney Rock, Lake Lure and Batcove were among some of the most devastated areas in western North Carolina. Closed since the storm because of destroyed roads and unsafe buildings, Christmas was brought to the community on Saturday, Dec. 14 for a special one-day holiday market.
Gathered outside the Lake Lure Inn, Cityserve hosted small businesses that have been hard-pressed without the regular fall tourism season. The event also featured bus tours through Chimney Rock, which remains closed to the outside public.
Join the Carolina Weather Group as we bring Christmas to the people of western North Carolina. Hear from some of those hardest hit by the storm and how the holiday spirit has managed to find its way into the North Carolina mountains. Also hear from those who came out to support the community, including 2023 NASCAR Xfinity Series champion Cole Custer and Henderson Motorsports's Stefan Parsons.
We also get an update from the Army Corps of Engineering, which has been working to rebuild the lake and surrounding infrastructure since the storm.
Featuring the Carolina Weather Group's James Brierton and Dan Whittaker and WCNC Charlotte's Brad Panovich. Join us for this live stream event from the recovering shorlines of Lake Lure.

November 14, 2024 Why this home was set on fire FOR SCIENCE! [Podcast Ep. 500 @IBHS]

Setting a home on fire intentionally... or shooting hail out of a potato gun at roofing material... are all ways the Insurance Institute for Business Home and Safety uses science to make our lives safer.
For the Carolina Weather Group's 500th podcast episode, the team goes on-location to the giant IBHS weather lab in Richburg, South Carolina.
In this video, you will see scientists light a home on fire INTENTIONALLY in order to study how wind spread wildfires. On-hand for this experiment in the Carolinas, CALTECH and CAL FIRE from California, where wildfires can quickly become deadly and destructive. IBHS utilizes its wind tunnel to push over flames at 35 mph. Scientists want to see how quickly a fire can spread from one building to the next. See what happens when those fans crank up and blow onto the fully engulfed home.
From fire to ice... we take you inside IBHS' hail lab, where they make and study the impact of hail on roofs. Shooting hail at roofing materials of various ages and construction materials, helps IBHS make recommendations for the best roofing material. Coupled with science they collect storm chasing severe storms, and scientists use this data to publish their findings on https://IBHS.org. See what happens when our team gets to fire the hail gun!
All of this science helps drive building codes, which makes construction smarter and safer for homes and businesses.
Want to see over 30 minutes of the wind-driven fire experiment uninterrupted? 📹 Join our channel membership to get access such a perk: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmhGiYbMDccQcdSjpf87nGg/join
And join us again next week when our team gathers at IBHS to provide a retrospective on the severe weather, the interviews and memories from the first 500 episodes of our weekly podcast!
