WeatherBrains 1051: Oh My Cod!
Tonight's WeatherBrains is all about the NWS Storm Prediction Center (SPC)'s convective outlooks. Guest WeatherBrain and SPC forecaster Bill Bunting joins us tonight.  He grew up in Virginia Beach, VA where we experienced a series of hurricanes and Nor'easters at a very young age.  He attended Old Dominion University as well as OU where he earned his Bachelor's Degree.  He's been with the National Weather Service since 1985, where he's worked primarily at local offices in Norman (OK), Kansas City (MO) and Fort Worth (TX).  He was Chief of Forecasting Operations at SPC in 2012, and is now the Deputy Director at SPC since 2024.  Bill, welcome to WeatherBrains! Second and last Guest WeatherBrain (but certainly not the least!) is the brand new Warning Coordination Meteorologist (MIC) for the SPC.  He grew up in Ohio and attended Valparaiso University, and has since worked for the NWS for over 15 years.  He loves historical weather statistics and visualization.  Evan Bentley, welcome to WeatherBrains!
