The WeatherJazz® Podcast

With eight days running of no rainfall, at what point does the dry streak become record-setting?

Let's pick up where we left off on the career that shaped Cleveland television news, that of Virgil Dominic.

Here is a follow-up on last week's conversation with a resident of Svalbard, Norway.

Released Monday, May 22, 2023. May's rainfall pattern has been eclectic at  best in the month of May thus far. On "paper," it looks normal... but it has been anything but. Let's have a closer look on this Meteorological Monday.

Released Wednesday, May 17, 2023 Welcome to Svalbard, an island only 800 miles away from the geographical north pole. People actually live here year-round in a town called Longyearbyen! I had the privilege of speaking with Angie. She helps runs a hostel there called Gjestehuset (“guest house” in Norwegian). It’s our next stop in the  Big Blue Marble  series.

Released Monday, May 15, 2023 It doesn't take long to go from ground that is too wet to ground that is almost rock hard. This is a good time to look at the local drought indices.

Released Friday, May 12, 2023 This is PART ONE of a four-part series on the life and career of the television news legend, Virgil Dominic. It was Virgil Dominic who hired me at age 28, over 35 years ago, to be WJW's first weekday morning meteorologist for the Cleveland television market. I'll be highlighting excerpts from  Telich Talks , a podcast hosted by former WJW colleague, John Telic...

Released Wednesday, May 10, 2023 Have you noticed how hazy and yellow our sunrise was this morning here in NEOhio? You can trace it back to some early-season out-of-control wildfires in Alberta, Canada!

When is the average last freeze for major population centers of NEOhio? And what does that mean for avid backyard gardeners?

Host André Bernier reviews the week's weather pattern shift heading into the weekend, then talks about Eurovision 2023 and reveals what mny famous people said about musc.

Released Wednesday, May 3, 2023. You may have noticed the "jump" from "Season 3 - Episode #056" to "Episode #516" on Friday's release. I spoke about lumping everything together so that the casual first-timer listener will immediately (and properly) surmise that WeatherJazz® has been around for a long time, and it has (since 2005)! Thank YOU for your feedback in he...

It's a free-for-all, completely impromptu Open Line Friday! (Video version at WeatherJazz-dot-com!)

Attu Island is the 23rd largest island in the U.S.A. By what haven't you heard about it? Well, for starters, it's actually  uninhabited ! But that wasn't always the case.

It has already been a heavy "news" day, but over the weekend, our planet took a strong magnetic jolt making science news. The result has been easily seen. Plus, I tackle a GREAT listener question about one categorical temperature extreme in Cleveland.

Let's check in with meteorologist Scott Sabol who has some surprising weather elements that popped up for the next several weeks.

How much do you know about some of the islands located in the western basin of Lake Erie? Let's visit two of them, today on WeatherJazz®!

Why do high pressure systems provide protection against inclement weather? Let's find out why since the Ohio Valley will benefit from a high pressure system that has no intention of leaving the region anytime soon.

It's appropriate on this Good Friday to focus on thus sacred period on the Christian calendar with a live radio segment I did this week on WKJA-FM, HeartfeltRadio.org. You can also WATCH that live radio segment on WeatherJazz.com, Episode #050.

Let's wrap up the conversation I had with northern Virginia beekeeper Neil Manausa. This is Part 2 of a 2-part series.

It finally feels like spring after a pretty wild last 10 days.

Host André Bernier welcomes back Neil Manausa from northern Virginia. Neil started a new hobby of beekeeping several years ago and he returns to give us an update on how his hives (yes, plural!) are doing. neil also shares a few tips from things he has learned along the way.

It's Science Wednesday! Continuing in my Big Blue Marble series, let's explore the most remote island on planet Earth!

What a crazy weekend of wind in NEOhio. Let's review the gusts and their impact. And northeastern US ski areas that are  still  100% open? You bet! So is spring anywhere to be found (yet)? Leave it to a chippy little rodent to help us discover the answer.

My Big Blue Marble series takes an interesting turn today when Scott Sabol and I talk about his whirlwind car drives across America.

If you were in the "right spot" of NEOhio, you saw quite a bit of snow on Sunday! Is THIS winter's last hurrah?
