Blue Dot 18: Summer In The North State With The National Weather Service

National Weather Service

Is it summer already? Just like we did in the spring, we talk with National Weather Service meteorologists Tom Dang and Bill Rasch. Tom and Bill talk about forecasting in the hot North State summer, where the hottest of the hot spots are, how we cool down, and what we may have to look forward to in terms in La Niña. 

Dave Schlom is the longtime host and creator of Blue Dot. From surfing to Voyager in interstellar space, rock guitar to orcas in our imperiled oceans, the topics on Blue Dot are as varied as the host’s interests and connections -- which are pretty limitless! An internationally respected space history journalist, Dave is also deeply fascinated by all aspects of the grand workings of nature’s awesome machinery on scales ranging from galactic to subatomic. And topics take in all aspects of the arts and sciences.
