Meteorologist Bryan Norcross has spent decades analyzing some of the most powerful storms in modern history, and in Tracking the Tropics with Bryan Norcross, he applies that deep expertise to the systems churning in the Atlantic and beyond. This Fox Weather podcast isn't just about current forecasts; it's a vital examination of how past disasters continue to inform our understanding and preparedness today. With the 30th anniversary of Hurricane Andrew and the 10th anniversary of Superstorm Sandy upon us, Bryan will delve into the enduring lessons from these defining events. Each episode weaves together commentary on active weather patterns with critical insights drawn from historic catastrophes-the unimaginable rain from Harvey, the catastrophic levee failures during Katrina, the fierce assault of Ida on Louisiana, and even the surprising impacts of its remnants far to the northeast. You'll hear a clear-eyed analysis of the science behind these phenomena, discussions on evolving forecasting technology, and reflections on community resilience. Tune in for a podcast that connects the dots between historical context and the live threat of the next storm, helping listeners grasp the complex, often humbling forces of nature we track each season.
