You can't talk about air travel without talking about weather. That's why all major airlines employ their own team of meteorologists. But what are their specifc responsibilities and how do they help get the planes where they need to be?
David Dillahunt, the chief meteorologist at Southwest Airlines, joins the podcast to explain how he and his team support the daily decisions on air traffic — including delays, reroutes, and cancelations. He also discusses what weather concerns airlines the most and why flying first thing in the morning is usually the best decision during the summer. It's an episode you'll definitely want to listen to before (or on!) your next flight.We want to hear from you!

How you get weather information is changing and changing fast. First came newspapers, then came television, but increasingly, people are getting their forecasts on digital platforms, including news websites, social media, and weather apps. With explosive growth in this sector, some meteorologists have chosen to focus on digital exclusively.
In this special collaborative episode, the Lee Weather Team talks with Meteorologist Emily Gracey from The National Weather Desk and host of the Off The Radar podcast about the world of digital meteorology. How does it differ from traditional broadcast meteorology? What are the advantages and disadvantages? With so many sources of weather information now, how do you know which to trust? And if you've ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of your favorite weather podcast, this is the episode for you!

Late February and early March is usually when ice cover peaks on the Great Lakes. But there's not much this year. In fact, ice levels are at or near record lows. In a warming world, is this the new normal?
Physical Scientist Bryan Mroczka joins the podcast this week from the NOAA Great Lakes Environmental Research Lab to give perspective. Bryan shares the history of ice cover on the Great Lakes and why this year's low amounts are truly exceptional. He discusses the impacts being felt across the region right now and what lingering impacts may be for the rest of 2024. Finally, he looks at the big picture. How common will low ice cover like this be in the years ahead and what does it mean for the people, economy, and environment around the Great Lakes?

Computer weather models are the biggest tool meteorologists use to forecast the weather. But why are there so many, which one is the best, and why aren't they all better?
On this week's episode, the weather team digs deep into the world of computer weather modeling, also known as numerical weather prediction. The team discusses how it all started and how it's advanced over time. They also break down the advantages and disadvantages of the various weather models, including the two that people hear about the most, the GFS (American) and ECMWF (European). Finally, they discuss the efforts to improve the model forecasts and how artificial intelligence will likely play a big role.

Mike Witcher had been working as a broadcast meteorologist in Knoxville, Tennessee for more than a decade. Then, in 2023, he decided to take matters into his own hands. He created East TN Weather and became his own weather media company for local residents.
Mike is a part of a very small, but emerging sector of meteorology. Entrepreneurs who want to inform the public of what's going on with the weather. Mike sells his own advertising and it's up to him to provide updates around the clock. However, he says being your own boss and having a home studio, equipped with state of the art weather graphics, has improved his quality of life.
Hear all about how Mike did this and all the advantages and disadvantages that come with this unique job on this week's episode of Across the Sky!

Each year, The American Meteorological Society's Annual Meeting is the ultimate gathering for the weather community. Researchers, forecasters, and storm chasers alike come together to share their work, network, and try to solve some of meteorology's greatest challenges.
The 104th AMS Annual Meeting just wrapped up in Baltimore, Maryland. Two members of the Lee Weather Team, Meteorologist Sean Sublette and Meteorologist Joe Martucci, were in attendence and they share their thoughts and reactions on this week's episode. The two discuss the talks that stood out to them the most, the work they presented, and what it's like being at a meeting with so many other meteorologists. They also chat about who they met and who might be a guest on a future episode!

In order to predict how the weather will change, an accurate picture of what's happening now is needed. While current conditions at the surface are well known thanks to weather stations, there are significant gaps in the data higher up in the atmosphere. Unmanned aerial vehicles, better known as drones, could help fill in those gaps significantly.
Dr. Jamey Jacob from Oklahoma State University is leading the charge on bringing drones into the field of meteorology. He joins the podcast this week to talk about what kind of data drones can collect and the advantages they have over weather balloons and airplanes. He also discusses the current limitations and what will be needed before they can be used on a large-scale to improve weather forecasts.
