Been stuck in a hotel that has cable for 5 days, so I've been watching the #Weather channel. I have an idea to advance weather programming and general population's understanding of the scientific process, mainly interplay between models and observations. A #MultiSolution if you will.
Just after prime time, why not run a feature on "How did our models do?" Forecasts now involve interpreting complex models into shapes of warning areas. Every night, you can show the warning/forecast areas vs. the actual observations, patting yourselves on the back when the models do well and discussing what changed when the models don't do well. This could be useful for forecasts of severe weather outbreaks, rainfall totals, snowfall amounts, warning and watch areas, and of course tropical cyclone paths and intensities.
