Howdy Folks! Kevin Selle here with a Texas sized invitation to listen to the new WeatherBrains now online at www.weatherbrains.com and iTunes.
In this week’s episode:
– The Easter weekend cool down hit growers all over the country hard. We’ll learn some of the ways farmers try to foil Old Man Winter and keep temperatures above 32 degrees. We’ll talk with Dr. Arlie Powell, retired horticulture professor and administrator at Auburn University, about methods that range from water, to fire, to….helicopters;
– WeatherBrains Extra: The Big Chill – We do a crop check and talk with John Post of Post Familie Vineyards in Arkansas, Tom Irvin, Commissioner, Georgia Department of Agriculture, and Danny Jones with Durbin Farms in Alabama. We’ll see how crops from grapes to berries to peaches handled the cold
– The Week In Weather: Record rain in the northeast, tropical response readiness, and dolphin weather;
– On the Weather Roundtable: James gets to chase, JB wonders where all the water is, and Kevin gets thrown off the bus (sort of);
– This Week In Weather History: Bill Murray talks about forecasting during World War II, a nightmare tornado at a school, and a time when forecasters could not use the word “tornadoâ€;
Join James Spann, J.B. Elliott, Bill Murray, Kevin Selle and David Black…
We also “try” and sing Happy Birthday to J.B. Worth the price of admission alone….
