One More Thing: Interview
This week's interview is with JKP_Weather. JKP is from the Boston area, just far enough inland that he doesn't feel the refreshing sea breeze off the Atlantic. JKP is in high school, but is looking to do something weather related when he gets to college.
His favorite aspect of meteorology is the unpredictability. Forecasting is a challenge, but you're never quite sure what will happen until it does. Being from the northeast United States, snow is his favorite form of precipitation. Someone showed him an NWS graphical forecast, and his love for weather "took off from there."
His favorite part of the Weather Warrior experience is live tracking his scores. It's always a thrill to look at your score rise due to rainfall or heat.
You can follow JKP on Twitter here. Good luck to him the rest of the season!
