All eyes are on the weather as we gear up for planting season. County Fair Boards also watch the forecast closely. With entertainment and attendance depending on good weather, success can be like flipping a coin. That makes insurance a necessity. Robert Holmes is the president of Spectrum Weather and Specialty Insurance. His clients are nationwide, but his roots are in the Upper Midwest. Robert grew up in Minnesota and then came to college in Wisconsin. He worked as a weather researcher at UW-Madison for eight years before starting his business. His job today is to help fairs protect their bottom line in case of a severe weather event or the countless other things that could go wrong.
