The truth about cicadas & Rock Hill hail storm [Ep. 490]
This week, WCNC Charlotte Chief Meteorologist Brad Panovich talks about two very important, and yet very different, topics: The cicada emergence and a destructive severe thunderstorm in Rock Hill, South Carolina.This year will have the return of two different broods of cicadas, the Periodical Cicadas, also known as Brood XIX or Brook 19. They return every 13 years and are expected here in the Carolinas.Elsewhere in the United States, Broox XIX, which returns every 17 years, is also returning.A lot of headlines are emphasizing this return of two different cicada broods with phrases like "cicada invasion" or "cicada apocalypse." Many news stories give the false impression that the two types of cicadas will be appearing at the same time.As Brad Panovich explains, unless you live in a few very specific locations, you are unlikely to experience both types of cicadas. (Of course, even just one type of cicada can be loud enough. Just as the people of Newberry County, South Carolina: https://www.wltx.com/article/news/local/cicadas-noise-complaints-newberry-county-south-carolina-bugs/101-d1dbb836-6a68-438a-8813-700d7a61e5f2) Brad write's more about the cicadas here: https://www.wcnc.com/article/weather/weather-iq/millions-of-cicadas-return-after-13-years-in-the-next-few-weeks/275-b664824b-858a-43d6-b893-e5959771890eBrad also shares his eyewitness account of devastating storm damage in Rock Hill, South Carolina. A supercell thunderstorm impacted York County, South Carolina on April 20 with 90-mph winds and baseball-sized hail. Brad visited the neighborhoods hardest hit by the severe weather and talked with experts, including the National Weather Service and the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS) about what they saw.The thunderstorm, which was found not to have produced a tornado, produced the largest hail either Brad or the Carolina Weather Group's Frank Strait can recall ever seeing in the Carolinas. Frank, who is from Rock Hill, shares his thoughts on the severe weather damage left behind in his hometown. #northcarolina #southcarolina #weather #ncwx #scwx 🧢 MERCH: https://rstrm.io/e/YDmSpk 💸 LEAVE A TIP: https://streamelements.com/carolinawxgroup/tip 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST: https://anchor.fm/carolinaweather 🔔 SUPPORT US ON PATREON: https://patreon.com/carolinaweathergroup 💻 VISIT OUR WEBSITE: https://carolinaweathergroup.com The Carolina Weather Group operates a weekly talk show of the same name.

Chasing storms: Inside the tornado outbreak of April 13, 2020 | Ep. 488
Chris Jackson is a South Carolina-based storm chaser and a trained first responder. On April 13, 2020, he chased severe weather as it raced across his home state. The early morning event was a continuation of what became known as the Easter tornado outbreak of 2020, which caused damage across much of the South before coming into the Carolinas. In South Carolina, there were 5 EF-3 tornadoes, 2 EF-2 tornadoes, and 1 EF-1 tornado in Central South Carolina and East-Central Georgia, causing 2 fatalities and at least 7 significant injuries. On this episode of the Carolina Weather Group podcast, Chris Jackson shares his story of chasing the storms, reporting tornado damage as a SKYWARN spotter, dialing 911 to alert authorities of an emergency, and rescuing a couple from their storm-ravaged home. By the time the severe weather outbreak was over, Chris visited Williston, Neeses, Livingston, Estill, Nixville, and Walterboro, all in the state of South Carolina, to survey the storm damage. During the course of the tornado outbreak, the National Weather Service in Charleston, SC issued their first ever Tornado Emergency, which is the highest and most severe classification of a Tornado Warning.

Preparing for the 2024 solar eclipse [Ep. 484]
#space #science #eclipse #northcarolina #southcarolina #weather #ncwx #scwx The Monday, April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada. Unlike 2017, the totality will not pass directly through the Carolinas. But still, at about 80% totality, there will still be some solar eclipse to experience in both North Carolina and South Carolina - weather permitting. This week on the Carolina Weather Group, James Brierton talks with Gina DiBraccio, Deputy Director of Heliophysics, NASA GSFC, about what we can expect to see, how we can prepare for the eclipse, and the scientific discoveries that are made possible by a solar eclipse. We also discuss space weather, solar storms, and the impacts of solar radiation on technology such as GPS and radio communication. Still need solar eclipse glasses? In this episode, we explain how you can make solar eclipse glasses at home. You can also reuse your glasses from the 2017 Eclipse or check retailers. While demand for the eclipses will be high, checking with unconventional retailers like video production stores or a hardware store may help. For example, B&H will ship you solar eclipse glasses (while supplies last) from https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/buy/solar-eclipse-glasses-accessories/ci/32948.

AI severe weather alerts [Ep. 481]
NOAA’s National Weather Service (NWS) has provided manual translations of weather forecasts and warnings in Spanish for the past 30 years, but now the agency has a new tool to be more accurate, efficient and equitable.
Through a series of pilot projects over the past few years, NWS forecasters have been training artificial intelligence (AI) software for weather, water and climate terminology in Spanish and Simplified Chinese, the most common languages in the United States after English. NWS will add Samoan and Vietnamese next, and more languages in the future.
Two of the nearly dozen locations where these AI-translated severe weather bulletins are being tested are in the Carolinas. This week, James Brierton talks with Chris Rohrbach, a meteorologist and web developer at the National Weather Service in Columbia, South Carolina, where this artificial intelligence experiment is being tested alongside locations such as Greenville-Spartanburg, SC.
You’re invited to try out the translated severe weather bulletins at https://weather.gov/translate. NOAA wants your feedback. You can e-mail ws.translate@noaa.gov before September 29, 2024.

The man inside NC's decommissioned lighthouse [Ep. 477]
It's been three years since the Carolina Weather Group first talked with Richard Neal, the owner of the decommissioned Frying Pan Shoals Tower off the coast of North Carolina. James Brierton and Shea Gibson caught up with Richard recently during the Weather Pods Disaster Relief Telethon. Here now is that updated conversation, followed by an encore presentation of our first interview from 2020. Frying Pan Tower is located 32 miles off the coast of North Carolina and rises 135' above the Atlantic Ocean. It helps provide safety to Mariners in the Atlantic Ocean, is used for environmental research and education studies, and is a shelter to a natural ecosystem for marine wildlife. Its location makes it a prime spot to observe tropical weather off the Carolina coast, including a direct hit by Hurricane Irene in 2011. Weather conditions are observed on-board by weather sensors and a live streaming webcam. In 2010, the government placed the Frying Pan Tower up for auction, with the winning bid going to Richard Neal of Charlotte, NC. Richard is our guest on this episode of the Carolina Weather Group. The tower is powered using wind turbines and solar energy for electricity. It has a filtration system for potable water and high-speed Internet for communications. You can learn more about the tower, and make a donation to its upkeeping, on https://fptower.org/. This original episode was available early to our Patreon supporters.

Ice, then storms in Carolina weather [Ep. 475]
An emerging weather pattern will bring a chance of winter weather, including ice, snow and sleet, to portions of North Carolina Friday night into Saturday. The best chance of wintry precipitation will be in the mountains of western North Carolina, including Asheville, Boone, Blowing Rock and Hickory, but could also spill over into portions of the Piedmont and Triad, including Greensboro, High Point, and Winston-Salem. Then an early forecast preview into next week shows a chance of strong storms across portions of both North Carolina and South Carolina Tuesday into Wednesday. The Carolina Weather Group's Scotty Powell and Frank Strait, joined by WFMY's Christian Morgan and future WXII meteorologist Dylan Hudler, provide forecast analysis and insight into Carolina weather impacts expected from these two January storm systems. #northcarolina #southcarolina #weather #ncwx #scwx 🧢 MERCH: https://rstrm.io/e/YDmSpk 💸 LEAVE A TIP: https://streamelements.com/carolinawxgroup/tip 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST: https://anchor.fm/carolinaweather 🔔 SUPPORT US ON PATREON: https://patreon.com/carolinaweathergroup 💻 VISIT OUR WEBSITE: https://carolinaweathergroup.com The Carolina Weather Group operates a weekly talk show of the same name.

Trifecta: Jim Cantore, Mike Bettes and Ken Graham
Our 12-hour Weather Pods Disaster Relief Telethon had lots of plans. Lots of meetings. Lots of choreographing. And yet we still knew: It's live for 12-hours. Expect the unexpected.
For me, as the technical director, the hour that stands out the most was the 4 p.m. eastern hour, when through a series of unexpected events, three big guests ended up live at the same time.
The hosts that hour came from our friends at the WeatherBrains podcast. As the first weather podcast, they have a lot of great connections and friends. Among others, they had arranged for visits from the Weather Channel's Jim Cantore and Mike Bettes. They had also arranged a conversation with Ken Graham, the National Weather Service director.
But the three weren't scheduled to appear at the same time. And yet, it happened.
It was a memorable moment for me. Three huge names in our weather industry were, for all intents and purposes, suddenly on a Zoom call hosted by my computer. (Even when you didn't see CWG hosts on-screen, the entire telethon was streaming through our HQ.) I sat here mostly frozen. I didn't want to move. I didn't want to sneeze. I didn't want to do anything that might cause the computer to freeze up, shut down, or lose Internet. (I'm sure you've been there. As you save a big school project. Close out a big work task. Or anxiously await those concert tickets. It was that type of anticipation.)
We're so lucky to have had this moment and even more lucky to have friends like WeatherBrains, who are allowing our audience to relive that moment this week on the Carolina Weather Group.
I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

Brad Panovich and Mark Sudduth on the 2023 hurricane season [Ep. 473]
Every year, we love catching up with North Carolina's own Mark Sudduth, a storm chaser and founder of hurricanetrack.com. Each year, Mark shares with us his amazing stories of chasing and documenting some of Mother Nature's most intense tropical storms. Mark and his filmmaking are known for capturing footage where humans cannot. By securing cameras inside the path of a tropical storm or hurricane without the need for a human operator, Mark is able to safely capture amazing video of Mother Nature's true strength. For this year's conversation looking back at the 2023 Atlantic hurricane season, Mark was invited to join the Carolina Weather Group and our friends from Weather Brains, Storm Front Breaks, and Chaser Chat for the Weather Pods Disaster Relief Telethon. In that telethon's 8 p.m. hour, Mark joined us for that special conversation, which was helmed by guest host Brad Panovich of WCNC Charlotte. Thanks to your generous support, our telethon was able to raise over $7,500 for the American Red Cross. You can still donate by visiting https://bit.ly/wxpodstelethon.

Seeing live storms with WeatherSTEM cameras [Ep. 472]
#northcarolina #southcarolina #weather #ncwx #scwx
The Carolina Weather Group's James Brierton catches up with Ed Mansouri, the CEO and founder of WeatherSTEM, about his network of nearly 800 weather stations nationwide that provide live storm video, real-time weather data, and other criteria data. These stations, many of which are in both North Carolina and South Carolina, provide emergency managers with ground truth to aid with weather decision support. They also provide broadcast meteorologists with vantage points, many of which come from college and professional sports venues. The live cameras are often featured on the Carolina Weather Group's live storm coverage. Ed Mansouri also says WeatherSTEM has recently installed their first WeatherSTEM Blast system, which provides audible alarms and flashing lights ahead of severe weather, at a golf course in North Carolina.

North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper and state officials hold a briefing to discuss what is now Tropical Storm Idalia.
The impacts of Idalia will begin to be felt in North Carolina and South Carolina starting Wednesday and continuing through Thursday.
Tropical storm-strength winds and rains will impact the Carolinas. While the exact path of Idalia is still unknown, anywhere across the Carolinas could see soaking rains and gusty winds. Some areas could see as much as 6 to 8 inches of rain.

Enhanced severe storm threat Monday [SPECIAL]
Severe thunderstorms are forecast to bring damaging winds to North Carolina and South Carolina today, Monday, August 7, 2023. The line of thunderstorms will feed off the day's 100+ degree heat index, which has prompted the National Weather Service to issue heat advisories across portions of the Carolinas. The storms are expected around 4 p.m. in the western North Carolina mountains, including in Asheville, Boone, and Blowing Rock. The storms will push eastward across the Carolinas and arrive in upstate South Carolina, including Spartanburg and Greenville, and Charlotte and Greensboro between 6 and 8 p.m. The storms are expected to remain strong as they move toward Raleigh and Columbia. Coastal locations, including Wilmington, the outer Banks, Myrtle Beach and Charleston, could see the lingering effects from these strong storms during the overnight hours into early Tuesday morning. There is a 30% chance of seeing damaging winds across much of the Carolinas. This has prompted the National Weather Service's Storm Prediction Center to issue an "Enhanced" tier 3 out of 5 risk for severe weather across much of western and central North Carolina and South Carolina. East of I-95, the severe threat remains but is more "marginal" at a tier 1 out of 5. There is also a 15% chance of hail and a 2% chance of a tornado. As they're issued, the Carolina Weather Net will stream real-time tornado, severe thunderstorm, and flash flood warnings from the National Weather Service here: https://youtube.com/live/HaxSfNloauo?feature=share 🧢 MERCH: https://www.youtube.com/@CarolinaWeatherGroup/store 💸 LEAVE A TIP: https://streamelements.com/carolinawxgroup/tip 🎙️ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST: https://anchor.fm/carolinaweather 🔔 SUPPORT US ON PATREON: https://patreon.com/carolinaweathergroup 💻 VISIT OUR WEBSITE: https://carolinaweathergroup.com The Carolina Weather Group operates a weekly talk show of the same name.
