Brainstorming with Jerry Jackson

COUNTING THE GRAINS OF SAND...

If someone were to ask you to document every single United States tornado of the past 150 years, you would likely raise your hands in despair.

A LAPSE FOR JUDGEMENT...

Severe weather forecasting is one of the most important tasks for any meteorologist.

TRUTH IN SYMBOLS...

Any graduating meteorology student will tell you that one of the hardest forecast parameters is the "sky condition".

BIGGER THAN YOU THINK...

As you probably know, computers are here to stay. From bank machines to grocery store check-outs, it seems that we can't even buy a gallon of milk without using a computer.

MANY SETS OF EYES...

After a relatively quiet start to the year, the last few weeks have been rather active.

MANY SHADES OF GREY...

Have you ever wondered about the color of tornadoes?

FULL STEAM AHEAD...

It's hard to believe that winter is almost over. At home, I think we still have a box of candy canes sitting in our kitchen (right beside the chocolate Easter eggs).

BY ANY OTHER NAME...

As I write this blog on this Monday February 18, I'm running on about 3 hours of sleep following a night of severe weather.
