    This guy is simply amazing. For I live in Atlanta. A long time ago, I used to work out at sportslife gym in Buckhead. I knew and talked with jim cantore all the time while working out. I remember the very day that Jim was first hired with the weather channel. Amazing to see him grow into the icon of the weather channel which started some 25 years ago. He is and always has been an incredibly hard working and very kind gentleman. I have not seen him for all these years since at sportslife. It's so encouraging to see his life grow into a wonderful weather expert. Cheers.

      The guy in the video said he's stood in 80 to 90mph winds. It looks like around 80mph he started losing his balance. There's a lot of factors that would have an impact. Primarily size, weight, and body position/stance but also things like the friction between your shoes and the ground, the clothing your wearing, and if the wind is laminar or turbulent when it hits you.

But Jim was OUT THERE, fighting to stand up talking to the people at the studio, giving the viewers info, being professional. Hopefully by them seeing Jim struggle kept them inside. What a pro, what a legend.

      Nigel 900 I'm trying to figure out the "science" of predicting a hurricane when you wait until an few hours before it hits before you make the call as to where it's going. It's like making a bet on a horse race and changing the bet as the race progresses.

    • @nigel900
      @nigel900 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Certainly, forecasting isn't a precise science and trying to accurately predict the outcome of a hurricane is hit and miss at best. My better point was that most forecasting today has been relegated to computer modeling, rather than a trained eye in the field. I think one, compliments the other. I challenge you to look at any of these computer modeled forecasts today, they change every 30 minutes to an hour. That's not forecasting. Hell.. I can look out the window and tell you what it will do in the next hour, with fairly good results. Thanks for the response friend.
