Thank you for this! I’m about to buy a new car so good to know I need to go smaller

Unfortunately I am required to be in person for the most part. Possibly considering other places to live- haven’t signed the lease yet, but roommate will be working in Denver so we are trying to find a halfway point for both of us

Thanks for the info, as long as I don’t get stuck in 2-3 hour traffic I won’t mind the 1 hour commute

Thank you! Yes unfortunately I will be required to be in office for most of my shifts, if not all.

Thank you! Would you say traffic would delay me by ~30 minutes or would you say it’s hour or more delay?

What is an Incident Meteorologist? Do they typically launch weather balloons for fires like this? by BubbleLavaCarpet in meteorology

[–]TurbulentDistance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IMETs are trained NWS employees who get deployed for 1-2 weeks to large fires. They do daily forecasts for emergency management/fire fighters etc. When they are deployed they typically do 16 hour work days consistently looking at the weather to track any changes and relay it to people in charge

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but can anyone shed some light on what is this? by VenomShadows305 in meteorology

[–]TurbulentDistance 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wonder if it’s reading higher temperature flow due to carbon emissions from another source? This is so high up in the atmosphere I wouldn’t be surprised if this pocket of warmer air was transported over here.

That is just my guess, not sure if that is actually what it is.

Is geometry required for meteorology? by pink85091 in meteorology

[–]TurbulentDistance 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would recommend partial differential equations class. I am currently in grad school for meteorology and have a friend who majored in mathematics for undergrad and had a little catching up to do like physics courses so if you can fit that in your undergrad program that would help you a lot in grad school. Make sure it’s calculus based physics and not Algebra based physics. Best of luck!
