Have you ever considered a career in meteorology? The perception of meteorology is often based on the person delivering weather on TV, seemingly with a glamorous, well-paying career that takes little effort. Many people have given the profession thought, but few follow through because of the calculus, chemistry, and physics involved in earning a meteorology degree! TV meteorologists are a small percentage of all meteorologists, but they are the most visible ones. There's a lot that goes into surviving and succeeding in a career that involves science and performance in unscripted presentations, and large amounts of community service. Meteorologist Alan Sealls shares the behind-the-scenes reality of broadcast meteorology. That reality is often satisfying, rewarding, and fun, but it includes many daily deadlines, multitasking, stress in forecasting, and juggling the challenges of dealing with viewers and followers who can be mean, rude, and irrational.
