In this episode of GeoTrek, Hurricane Hal sits down with Joe Martucci, New Jersey’s only Certified Broadcast and Digital Meteorologist and an FAA-certified drone pilot. They explore how he communicates critical weather information across a state known for dramatic seasonal swings — from coastal storms to inland snow — and a population as diverse as its climate. It’s a focused conversation on forecasting, public trust, and delivering clear warnings in a place where both the weather and the people keep you on your toes.

Joe’s work has been featured in The New Yorker, Deadliest Catch, and Rutgers publications, and as the first Certified Digital Meteorologist (2023), he now speaks nationwide on the future of meteorology in media.
