WeatherBrains 353: I’m a Bald Boob ! ! !

| October 30, 2012 @ 4:50 am

WeatherBrains Episode 353 is now online (October 29, 2012). If you are crazy about weather, this is THE netcast audio program for you!

The guests for this episode have all become jumbled due to Sandy. That is, the regular guest planned for tonight has been superseded by having Sandy coming into the East Coast along the New Jersey and Delaware coastlines.

So, we have with us tonight David VandenHeuvel from Warning Decision Technologies (WDT), along with Brent Shaw who is one of the modeling scientists at WDT.

Other discussions in this weekly podcast include topics like:

  • Extremes: 93 at Ocotillo Wells, CA, 14 at Tomohawk, Camp Douglas, and Fort McCoy, WI
  • Sandy has made landfall near Atlantic City, NJ
  • All of Alaska covered by snow
  • Much damage in Mid-Atlantic states
  • What is a bald headed boob?
  • and more!
  • Our email bag officer has his hand in the incoming mailbag and summarizes the messages from our listeners.

    From The Weather Center:

    WeatherBrains 101: We’ve been watching a big circulation in the form of Sandy for the better part of a week, so this week the 101 segment takes a look at global circulations which go on all the time. Besides identifying them, we’ll also try to explain the three main circulation patterns which occur between the equator and the poles.

    TWIWH: Bill Murray looks back at the week of October 29th.
