The first picture is of little Kei back in 2010 visiting the National Weather Service in Binghamton! Thank you to all my friends and family who have supported me along the way. 我不能 be where I am today without you ❤️

Using YouTube to Make Meteorology Dreams a Reality

霍尔特汉利, a graduate student in the Department of Meteorology and Climate 科学 at 菠菜网lol正规平台, began to release weather analysis videos on YouTube long before grad school simply to practice his broadcast technique. His practice paid off when a feature article in a local paper pointed readers to his channel for the most understandable fire weather analysis the reporter had found. Holt now delivers his critical information to thousands of Bay Area subscribers who appreciate his well practiced delivery of critical weather and fire danger news.

Update: Look who's doing Salinas weather on the news this summer!
