It makes sense that weather can directly affect the aviation industry, but it also wreaks havoc on banking, broadcasting, energy production, recreation and utility businesses among others. These businesses rely on a professional weather station to keep them abreast of potential issues, and such a station can help your operations as well.
Benefits of a Professional Meteorologist
When you enlist the services of a professional meteorological company, you receive detailed reports from a professional weather station designed to help you make crucial decisions pertaining to your business. For example, according to The Washington Post, Major League Baseball’s Washington Nationals rely on real-time weather data to ensure optimal fan and player safety. According to head groundskeeper John Turnour
- 9 percent of his focus is on professional-grade weather radar during inclement game days.
- By tapping into a forecasting command center, Turnour receives personalized pre-, during and post-game weather forecasts.
- Professional forecasting information includes hazardssuch as lightning storms.
How does Turnour get his hands on such crucial data? He works with Earth Networks where, as quoted from The Washington Post, chief meteorologist Mark Hoekzema explains, “We’re getting the real-time rain rates, so we’re able to, with the dense network [of weather stations] around D.C., see the rain as it approaches and gauge generally if it’s… enough to create a problem…”
