Episode 6: Thrill of the Chase (w/ Noah Brauer & Nick Gilmore)

June 20, 2016

On this week's episode of WeatherHype, we're discussing the art of storm chasing with two meteorologists who have both had an opportunity to go out in the field. Noah Brauer, a graduate of the University of Colorado-Boulder, and Nick Gilmore, a graduate of Virginia Tech, will be joining us for an in-depth analysis on the pros and cons of storm chasing and how we can improve chasing practices for the weather community as a whole. We also discuss the controversy behind the term "haboob," which is often used to describe dust storms and the inconsistent severe weather information disseminated by a Facebook page in Pennsylvania. We also discuss Castle's home improvement projects and Minh's hiking adventures with Aaron Paul and Sophia Bush.
