About this podcast
Meteorology, served with genuine excitement — Tornadoes, blizzards, heat domes, lightning: this is a podcast about the forces that drive our weather and the stories behind them.
This podcast focuses on weather, especially extremes, and the way it interacts with forecasting. Much of the podcast focuses on the U.S.A. Local Chicago weather is sometimes included. Often a weather synopsis is given for the Midwest. Sometimes a weather synopsis is also given for the East Coast or West Coast. Occasionally, a synopsis is given for other locations within the United States, including the Gulf Coast. In recent months, the Jewish halachic times (called zmanim) have often been included.
מטאורולוגיה, מוגשת בהתלהבות אמיתית — מאת שמחה, חובב מזג אוויר שאינו יכול שלא להיסחף במדע של האטמוספירה. טורנדו, סופות שלג, כיפות חום, ברקים: זהו פודקאסט על הכוחות שמניעים את מזג האוויר שלנו ועל הסיפורים שמאחוריהם.
פודקאסט זה עוסק במזג האוויר, במיוחד בתופעות הקיצוניות, ובאופן שבו הן משפיעות על התחזיות. חלק ניכר מהפודקאסט מתמקד בארצות הברית. לעיתים נכלל מזג האוויר המקומי של שיקגו. לעיתים תכופות ניתן סיכום מזג אוויר למערב התיכון. לעיתים ניתן גם סיכום מזג אוויר לחוף המזרחי או לחוף המערבי. מדי פעם ניתן סיכום למקומות נוספים בארצות הברית, לרבות חוף המפרץ. בחודשים האחרונים, נכללו לעיתים תכופות זמני ההלכה היהודיים (הנקראים זמנים).
Yiddish:
מעטעאראלאגיע, געדינט מיט עכטער באגייסטערונג — פון שמחה, א וועטער-חובב וואס קען זיך נישט רייסן פון דער וויסנשאפט פון דער אטמאספער. טורנאדאס, שניישטורמען, היץ-קופּלען, בליצן: דאס איז א פאדקאסט וועגן די כוחות וואס טרייבן אונזער וועטער און די דערציילונגען הינטער זיי.
דער פאדקאסט פאקוסירט זיך אויף וועטער, במיוחד אויף עקסטרעמען, און ווי עס אינטעראגירט מיט דער וועטער-פראגנאז. א גרויסער טייל פון פאדקאסט פאקוסירט זיך אויף די פאראייניגטע שטאטן. אמאל איז אריינגענומען דאס לאקאלע וועטער פון שיקאגא. אפטמאל ווערט געגעבן א וועטער-איבערבליק פאר דעם מידוועסט. אמאל ווערט אויך געגעבן א וועטער-איבערבליק פאר דעם מזרח-ברעג אדער מערב-ברעג. פון צייט צו צייט ווערט געגעבן אן איבערבליק פאר אנדערע ארטן אין די פאראייניגטע שטאטן, אריינגערעכנט דעם גאלף-ברעג. אין די לעצטע חדשים, זענען אפטמאל אריינגענומען געווארן די אידישע הלכה'דיגע צייטן (גערופן זמנים).
