Walking between two worlds

Big weather is a big thing in the Territory. Incredible heat and humidity. Cyclones, monsoons, lightning, and a world famous storm called Hector that goes by the clock. 

Jackson Browne is a Larrakia Wulna man and a senior meteorologist with the Bureau of Meteorology. Growing up in Darwin gave him a more than just taste of  big weather, which led to a thirst to make a difference through weather prediction and communication.
