The "weather experience" presented by NBC Connecticut was a blast last night!  There was a good turnout of weather enthusiasts who showed up to hear how NBC creates their weather forecasts.  Ryan Hanrahan and Brad Field were excellent hosts and shared amazing stories and taught us about their "exact track" weather forecasting models. 

There were also many youngsters who had the chance to stand in front of a "green screen" and do forecasts.  We also learned why the screen is green and what the technology is behind that.  I learned several things I didn't know and found the whole presentation very well organized and thought out.  

There was a trivia segment which was very fun.  Questions were asked about historic flooding, historic blizzards, and tornadoes!  Prizes were handed out for correct answers and NBC also gave out some free promotional material at the end.  

After the show concluded, Brad and Ryan stuck around to chat with weather geeks like myself and took pictures with fans and signed autographs.  It was a very fun night and encourage anyone interested in weather to check out the next show whenever that may come.

Here are some pictures I took at the show...

My drive into work this morning was a lot foggier than I had thought it would be.  It wasn't bad enough to be dangerous but just enough to snap some really cool pictures.  Check out a few that I took on my way in to work this morning!
