\begin{abstract}
Hi everyone, I'm the chief meteorologist for WXshift and Climate
Central. I also run our National Science Foundation-funded program with
that provides climate information to more than 250 on-air TV
meteorologists. In previous lives, I was a meteorologist for Accuweather
and on TV in Baltimore. I'm a proud Penn State alum (We are\ldots{}!)
and card-carrying weather geek. I'm part of a team that just launched
WXshift, a new weather site, this week. It offers something no other
weather site has --- relevant, localized trends in rainfall, snowfall,
temperatures and drought in the context of your daily forecast. We
couldn't be more excited about it and I would love to answer your
questions about the site, how we crunched data from 2,000 weather
stations, local (or global) climate change, weather or any other burning
meteorology questions you have. I've brought along a few friends to
join, too. Brian Kahn, a senior science writer here at Climate Central,
Eric Holthaus, a writer at Slate and fellow meteorologist, and Deke
Arndt, the head of climate monitoring at the National Centers for
Environmental Information, are here to chat, too. We'll be back at 2 pm
ET (11 am PT, 6 pm UTC) to answer questions, ask us anything! EDIT: Hey
Reddit, Bernadette and Brian here! It's 2 p.m. ET, and we're officially
jumping in to answer your questions along with Deke and Eric. Look
forward to chatting! EDIT \#2: Hello everyone! Just wanted to send out a
HUGE thank you to all of your for participating and for all of your
questions. We are really sorry that we can't answer each and every one
of them, but we tried to cover as much as we could today before signing
out. Also, a BIG thanks to the other members of this AMA Deke and Eric.
Until next time\ldots{} Bernadette and Brian%
