But these archives aren’t just collecting dust – they’re helping us anticipate weather events in the future and create tools to navigate the fallout of the climate crisis.

Featuring:

  • Kathie Dello, North Carolina’s state climatologist
  • Jason Cooper, archivist at NCEI
  • Greg Hammer, meteorologist at NCEI
  • Adam Smith, applied climatologist at NCEI
  • Joe Williams, farmer at Blue River Legacy Farms
