Tuesday, May 26, 2015

Blog Update - Come take a look!

Hey guys! No forecast tonight, just a heads up though of some changes to the blog site:

- Added Regional Weather Radar, look on the right sidebar, it is the first thing there. **NOTE - Trying to find a more interactive module

- Added the WeatherBug Widget, this displays some of the data that comes from the WeatherBug Weather Recording Station at the Irvington Public School. Please note, the forecast that is on that widget is WeatherBug's forecast and NOT ours [WeatherInTheHud with Remy & Dillon]

- Added WeatherBug Station Data Link, this is the link to the Student page for the WeatherBug Weather Station. **If it asks for Login information, enter the Zipcode: 10533 and choose Irvington Middle School, then 8th grade.** Once on the site, you can navigate through the sidebar. There are many activities, tools, and fun information as well as educational material. TO GET to the raw data from our station at the High School click the <TOOLS> tab on the sidebar, then the first link <Weather Observations> this will open a new page with the station data, there are some tabs you can use to see different items, and archived data 180 days past, as well as graphing capabilities

Dillon and I hope everybody enjoys these new features! We will keep trying to make the blog better and add new features, so please, if you have any suggestions on how we can make it better please let us know by either commenting on this post, or emailing me at remymerm@aol.com or Dillon at dillonpalmieri@yahoo.com

Thanks!

About Us

Remy Mermelstein - I am 16 and in 10th grade at Irvington High School in Irvington, NY. My love for weather has been around all my life, starting with my absolute obsession with winter and snowstorms since I was a toddler. In addition to weather, I pursue an active life in architecture, interning at a local architects office (Website can be found HERE) and doing many community projects, building, designing and landscaping. I am pursuing a pilot’s license as well, and my knowledge and love for weather helps greatly when flying. My weather page, Weather or Not in the Rivertowns with Remy Mermelstein has been up for about a year now, and I update it at least every other day or more with the latest in weather. I study weather extensively on my own time, and am extremely active in the forums on many weather sites, my favorite being Weatherbell where the knowledge of some of the world’s greatest forecasters are available to me, as well as the massive community of meteorologists, climatologists and pure hobbyists this world has. Dillon and I are also currently working with Joe D'aleo on Science Research involving correlations and effects between the NAO/AO/AMO/PDO...etc... Every day brings a new realm of learning to us here at Weather in the Hud, and every day we learn more. So thank you for joining us here to read our forecasts! And, as always, if you have suggestions, advice about our posts, or the weather and our forecasting PLEASE tell us - we are still students and we recognize that, and want to learn as much as we can. Thank you.

Dillon Palmieri – Hi! I am a sophomore at Irvington High School in New York. Like my colleague Remy, my obsession with meteorology started at a young age when I became fascinated by tornadoes at the age of four. From there, my interest in the field expanded to winter storms, severe weather, and finally grew enough for me to want to create my own weather forecasts. Starting last spring (2014), I began officially doing weather forecasts for the public in the Hudson Valley region with Remy on our Facebook page Weather or Not in the Rivertowns. Our popularity quickly grew into hundreds of followers as our forecasts were consistently accurate and provided detailed information that would otherwise not be provided for a specific area such as the Hudson Valley. I also am currently working with Joe D'Aleo, a very well-known meteorologist employed at Weatherbell on a science research project studying the effects of the AMO, PDO, NAO, and AO on global climate. I wish to thank you for visiting our site and please know we welcome any and all input from our followers to make our site better.
