Hi,
my name is Wyatt in i was just wondering if you could get a meteorology job with any thing below a bachelor's degree like a certificate in college?

Asked by wyatt about 8 years ago

Hi, Wyatt. It is possible if you can demonstrate a good knowledge of the subject but competition is pretty stiff for jobs so every bit of education helps. Good luck!

How do I get my answer

Asked by Kandy over 8 years ago

I would check with your local TV station or National Weather Service office.

I have a personal selfish weather question?!? My husband and I have plans to fly out from the US this Sunday am on 9/3/17 to the island of Grenada for the week and would like your opinion on the impact of Hurricane Irma there? Should we cancel???

Asked by Shannon over 7 years ago

Looks like you should have no problem getting in on Sunday. The current forecast model guidance suggests the storm will be far enough north early next week so as not to have a large impact on Grenada. A website you can check a few times a day shows you many of the models track information. Basically the closer the lines are together the more confidence in the track. Also check with the National Hurricane Center. Good luck!https://www.sfwmd.gov/weather-radar/hurricane-model-plots http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/

Why is it critical that all levels bliw in the same direction to form a tropical storm? Nd what happens when u have lowwe winds blowing a different than upper winds

Asked by Patricia about 9 years ago

If the wind changes direction with height it creates more friction, drag and chaos that impedes the development of the storm. Great question!

Hello I would like to move to Florida when I retire but I am concerned about hurricanes, my question, is their a city in florida that would less likely to get hit by a hurricane? I have been told to choose somewere that's located away from the coast,

Asked by Louie about 6 years ago

Great question, Louie. If you do a Google Image search for landfalling Florida hurricanes you'll let a lot of information. Here is a Wikipedia page that has great information. Just know that the speed and angle of approach makes a difference. For example a hurricane hitting Miami moving from east to west is a different outcome than one moving south to north. You might also poke around on the website for the National Hurricane Center. Happy retirement! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Florida_hurricanes and https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/

Hey Kevin! A selfish question here, but getting married in Wilmington NC on September 17th. Think we'll see any more tropical storm/hurricane activity within the next 10-12 days on the Atlantic?
