Summary
In 2025, weather risk in the United States became about more than storms—it exposed systemic failures in disaster response, science, and preparedness. Full description: In this episode of Meteorology Matters, meteorologist Rob Jones examines a troubling convergence shaping the United States in 2025—where climate risk, institutional breakdowns, and a growing loss of talent are colliding. 🔍 This episode explores: Why scientists, professionals, and families are increasingly leaving the U.S. How disaster response failures are amplifying weather and climate risk What political and institutional pressure on science means for forecasting, preparedness, and public safety From stalled disaster buyouts to the destabilization of America’s scientific workforce, this is a data-driven look at how weather risk extends far beyond the forecast. 🎧 Subscribe for clear, science-based weather and climate analysis.
