Meteorologist Jim Abraham joins Shane Hewitt to explore how weather forecasting is evolving — from storm physics to the psychology of how we talk about risk. He explains why accountability and communication are just as critical as technology, and how artificial intelligence could reshape forecasting accuracy. The conversation moves beyond definitions like “hurricane” or “post-tropical storm” to focus on real-world impacts and how language can shape public response. Jim also highlights the intersection of science, communication, and risk management in keeping people safe when the weather turns severe.
