We all do it, but to Phoebe De Wilt discussing the weather is more than just a way to pass the time with a stranger. As an aviation forecaster for the Bureau of Meteorology, Phoebe's take on the weather guides thousands of travellers and pilots to a safe landing. Join us for her conversation with presenter Sarah Davidson as she talks about her love of science, why she is happy to have let go of her childhood dream to travel to space and the study pathway that has led her to be in her element.

Phoebe provides insight into her work forecasting for airports and areas all over NSW and the ACT, plus tells us what it was like to study space science and astrophysics.
