So you think you can be a meteorologist? Jul 14, 2021

Show notes

Being a meteorologist is a lot more than standing in front of a green screen and reading a temperature map!

In fact, it takes years of education, training and — let’s be honest — a bit of hairspray to be able to bring you your local forecast.

In this episode of Whatever the Weather, meteorologists Kaiti Blake and Sarah Spivey walk through how they became meteorologists, which universities they attended, and a little about their first jobs in the business.

Sarah and Kaiti also explain what a day in their shoes looks like, from getting ready to go on camera, to presenting the weather in a creative way, and whether or not they read the prompter.

Show notes

If you watched the national news this week, you probably heard all about the potential for 'catastrophic' and 'deadly' tornadoes across parts of the Texas Panhandle and Oklahoma on Monday, May 20th. The Storm Prediction Center even issued a rare 'high risk' for severe weather...the first one of its kind in over two years. While it was an active day with plenty of severe weather reported, the question remains whether or not the forecast was a bust. Today, Meteorologists Sarah Spivey and Justin Horne recap Monday's events.
