How the Ocean Drives the Weather
What do El Niño, The Blob, and a weakening Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation have to do with each other? They all represent major ways that changes in the ocean impact global weather patterns and the long-range weather outlook. In this week's Weathinar, we'll take a look at how anomalous patterns in ocean temperatures and circulation have impacted weather around the globe in the past, and how they are projected to impact the long-range weather outlook this coming fall and winter.

How Weather Disrupts Global Supply Chains
Typhoons, intense monsoons, droughts, and cold snaps. Around the world, extreme weather can cause major disruptions to supply chains, wreaking havoc on global markets. From disk drives to semiconductor chips to iron ore to bananas, the effects of inclement weather on supply chains don’t need to come as a surprise. In this week’s Weathinar, guest Sadie Frank (Co-founder & CEO, N2EA) will join us to review the types of weather patterns associated with supply chain disruptions, and possible supply chain impacts over the coming fall and winter.

The Science of Long-Range Weather Forecasting
We can forecast weather over the next 7 days. But how do we forecast weather over the next weeks and months? In this week’s Weathinar, we provide an overview of how long-range weather forecasting differs from conventional 7-day weather forecasting, and delve into some of the 20+ years of scientific advances that allow us to see much further into the future than your weather app.

Weather and the Mining Sector
Weather impacts a range of environmentally vulnerable industries, from construction to agriculture to insurance. But mining remains one of the most environmentally vulnerable of all, with significant volatility in operations, production, and transport linked to weather-related disruptions. In this week’s Weathinar, we review how weather patterns have impacted mining operations around and world, and look at implications for the mining sector in the current long-range forecast.
