WeatherBrains 294: Google Foo
WeatherBrains Episode 294 is now online (September 12, 2011). If you are crazy about weather, this is THE netcast audio program for you!
Tonight’s Guest WeatherBrain, Jill Hasling, has worked in the field of meteorology since 1974 as a programmer, forecaster, researcher and forensic meteorologist. Since graduating in 1975, she has worked as a marine and tropical meteorologist and provides daily weather forecasts for the offshore oil industry all over the world. She was only the 6th woman to become a CCM in 1992 and was the first woman NCIM member. NCIM is an association of private sector meteorologists. She is one of the few women fellows of the AMS. Jill is the President of Weather Research Center and Director of The John C. Freeman Weather Museum in Houston.
Also joining the show is Elise Schultz who will give us the scoop on the Rocket City WeatherFest.
