One More Thing: Competitior Interview
This week’s interview is with Ben Cooper (CHSStormTracker). Ben is from the Low Country of South Carolina, and hopes to attend the College of Charleston for a degree in Biology.
Ben’s interest in weather really got going with Hurricane Matthew. He says he had been interested in weather before that, but never too seriously. Ben claims his favorite types of weather are hurricanes and winter weather. If he could make a forecast with two other meteorologists he would pick legendary meteorologists Dr. Greg Forbes and Dr. Phil Klotzbach.
When asked what his favorite part of the Weather Warrior experience was, he quickly said last year’s playoffs. He enjoyed the match play format, and would like to see it possibly included in future editions of the game.
