Listen Later

Tonight's Guest WeatherBrain is a Research Associate at NOAA's NSSL.  He was previously an Emergency Manager for almost a decade.  He's also previously worked for Kansas State University and even briefly worked in city government.  David Hogg, welcome to the show.

Our second Guest WeatherBrain is the Program Lead for Warn-on-Forecast, a position created in 2020.  Growing up in Oklahoma City sparked his passion for convective storms, and he attended the University of Oklahoma and worked as a student at NSSL where he helped improve algorithms that detect mesocyclones in thunderstorms using radar data. He also participated in several field programs, including the Sub-VORTEX outing on May 3, 1999.  Patrick Burke, welcome to the show.
