Purely out of curiosity do you read other people’s q&as or even ask questions?

Asked by Ozark was over 5 years ago

Very interesting question. From time to time I do look at the most recent few posts and look at a few answers. Oddly don’t think I’ve ever posted a question! Probably should change that. Thanks, Ozark!

Thank you great answer! I have one more for you do you think people should remain in shelter the WHOLE duration of the warring or do you think it is safe sometime after the rotation has passed?

Asked by Daniel about 6 years ago

Small differences from storm to storm can have a big impact. Would it be safe after a lone supercell passed? Probably. Would your location relative to a squall line of multiple storm cells be important? Absolutely. Extra caution rarely hurts. Thanks.

With all due respect I heard that newer people who go into certain stations are not as qualified as some of the older guys. Is this true, false, unknown ,or can you even comment?

Asked by The man almost 6 years ago

No offense taken! I would say this is true in any job or industry. More years usually means more experience!

Why have some scientists argued that the current rise in global temperature is causing an increase in magnitude, frequency, and duration of hurricanes

Asked by girlstarsccr about 6 years ago

Complicated question. The fuel for tropical systems is warm surface water in the ocean. Since the ocean and the atmosphere are connected a warmer atmosphere will create warmer oceans which adds up to more fuel. Hope that helps. Thanks!

Do you overreact when there is a low risk tornado watch and act like its the end of the world?

Asked by A man named Sue almost 6 years ago

Well...I sure try not to do that. Most of us try to create awareness rather than anxiety over severe weather.

Is "Tornado Alert" still a thing?

Asked by Carlene about 6 years ago

Hi, Carlene. Need a little more context, please.

What was your worst day on the job?

Asked by Sam about 6 years ago

Hmmm...any day with tornadoes is interesting. Severe weather is always fascinating to watch but the idea of loss of life always lingers in the back of your mind. Thanks for the question, Sam.
