I've been a broadcast meteorologist on television since the early 1990's. Happy to answer any questions about the weather or local TV news. Yes, I often wear sneakers on set just out of view of the camera.
Hi, Selern. Nope, but thunderstorm cells within a hurricane can produce tornadoes. A tornado is a relatively small scale feature compared to a hurricane, usually less than a mile compared to hundreds of miles across. Thanks!

Yes, Ron. Not my favorite presentation since it washes out and minimizes the data, but producers and managers get bored easily sometimes.

Hi, Scoopz. It can vary from city to city. Some might be more interested in how much you know about meteorology, or snow vs. severe weather vs. hurricanes. Some are give a bigger nod to being telegenic. Also, in some markets research is done on air talent with focus groups. One of more important factors can be involvement in the community, also web and social media skills. Thanks.

Hi, JG. I must admit that is a bit out of my area of expertise. You might try an internet search. I found this: http://www.surfline.com/surf-report/costa-rica_2736/map/

Hi, Ginny. A little terminology disconnect here, thanks for asking! A storm has fronts associated with it, so that storm had both. Typically a storm will have a cold front (the blue line you see on weather maps), the leading edge of colder air, usually moving south, and a warm front (the red line on weather maps), the leading edge of warmer air. Air flows toward the center of a storm (that big "L" you see on weather maps) and the system rotates counterclockwise. The winter storm names you have heard the last two years are a creation of The Weather Channel and not used by the rest of the weather community. There is a great online weather dictionary maintained by The National Weather Serivice at, http://w1.weather.gov/glossary/ if you would like to look up some terms. Great question, thanks!

Sounds cool, Vicki! Best guess is there was a fair amount of moisture lingering in the air after the rain ended which was scattering most of the light except for the yellow spectrum. Bet is was pretty!

Yes! This is caused by a lunar eclipse. Recently the term "blood moon" has been used on social media giving it some new life. Thanks!
