I was very fascinated with meteorology at a young age. I lived on the Gulf Coast and hurricanes blew through there. That is the class I failed in college: meteorology.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've been fascinated with severe weather since I was four, when I saw a tornado at night in my mom and grandmother's southeast Minnesota hometown while everyone else was asleep - an experience I encoded in 'The Stormchasers.'
I loved my Communications class. The toughest one I had was Oceanography only because I didn't have too much interest in the oceans.
I get recognized somewhere in between like local meteorologist and national meteorologist.
I began as a weatherman and I learned very quickly I wasn't very good at it.
I was rather hopeless at school, but the one subject I seemed to be good at was domestic science.
I've always been fascinated by weather.
As a young boy, I was obsessed with endangered species and the extinct species that men killed off. Biology was the subject in school that I was incredibly passionate about.
My interest in science started in junior high school where an outstanding science teacher, Mrs. Baumgardner, introduced me to the joys of science.
I grew up in the Northeast; I've seen hurricanes before and trees down and cars destroyed.
I preferred to use mathematics in some practical fashion and thought that meteorology sounded promising.
