WeatherBrains Episode 273 is now online (April 18, 2011). If you are crazy about weather, this is THE netcast audio program for you!

Our guest WeatherBrains tonight is Nate Johnson from WRAL-TV in Raleigh, NC. Our friend Nate was on the air through the entire event on Saturday as several long tracked tornadoes wreaked havoc across the Tar Heel State, including one that moved directly through his city.

Our mail bag has been getting some attention and Kevin puts it in perspective.

From The Weather Center:

WeatherBrains 101: For the last couple of episodes, 101 has been discussing various aspects of the GFDL hurricane forecast system. So one of the burning questions concerns how the model has performed. So that is the topic for this week.

TWIWH: Bill Murray looks back at the week of April 19th. Fog in the Gulf resulted in a maritime disaster.
