I'm a weather geek from Florida who's been studying meteorology and watching weather patterns for years! I enjoy sharing little-known facts and fun stuff about the weather. I especially like sharing interesting details about weather events and conditions that can affect you... and how to prepare for Mother Nature's ever-changing weather patterns.

Along with the fun you and your kids will have studying fall colors, recording the weather, and trying to guess what Mother Nature may bring next... your kids may also have the foundation of a blue-ribbon winning science project for the next school fair!

Find out more about the two types of sunblock, what SPF ratings really mean, and what the difference is between sunblock and sunscreen.

Learn how hurricanes and typhoons form and what you should do if one threatens your area.

Here's how to get a good local weather forecast. It works for me! Plus, tips for forecasting weather yourself... it's fun!

A Rain Party is Mother Nature's water park -- and it is quite a bit cheaper than going to an actual water park. As long as lightning is absent, cold weather is far away, and your yard can accomodate little feet jumping, dancing, and playing in the rain, a Rain Party just might be the thing to cool off your kids on a hot, summer afternoon!
