1
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,360
Speaker 1: Hey there, welcome to Grown Up with Emily, a Lingo

2
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 1: kids podcast. It helps kids discover how to be whatever

3
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: they want to be growing up.

4
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 2: Well following up shine, owing up up side?

5
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:33,920
Speaker 1: Hey, Winston, have you ever heard of tornado Alley?

6
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:36,959
Speaker 2: I don't think so, Emily, but it sounds a lot

7
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 2: like a carnival ride to me.

8
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:41,440
Speaker 1: It kind of does. But if you really want to

9
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: know what tornado Alley is, come join us as we

10
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: weather the wonderful world of meteorologists.

11
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,800
Speaker 2: All right, Emily, I looked up at the sky this

12
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 2: morning and the sun is shining bright. So I packed

13
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 2: up for our picnic in the park. I've got a blanket,

14
00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:01,360
Speaker 2: some sandwiches, fruit cups for desserts, and even a frisbee

15
00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 2: in case we designed to What was that? Uh?

16
00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: Oh, it sounds like it's gonna rain, Winston. I'm not

17
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 1: sure we'll be having our picnic today after all.

18
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 2: No way, it didn't look like rain this morning. It

19
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,119
Speaker 2: was so sunny out.

20
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 1: Oh well, it's definitely coming down out there now.

21
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 2: Ah man. I've been excited about this picnic for days.

22
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,240
Speaker 2: I even picked out the best picnic spot in the park,

23
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,600
Speaker 2: underneath that big pine tree that always says the squirrels

24
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:30,399
Speaker 2: running up and down it.

25
00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:34,319
Speaker 1: Oh sorry, Winston, I was excited too. I've been so

26
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: busy that I forgot to check the meteorologists forecasts.

27
00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 2: Who's it? What's it? Sow?

28
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 1: Oh you never heard of a meteorologist?

29
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 2: Well, is that like a person who makes sure big

30
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 2: scary meteors fall from the sky and swam under the earth.

31
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: Oh no, not exactly, But now that you mention it,

32
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: the word meteorologist does come from a Greek word that

33
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: means things in the air meteoron and logos, which means

34
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: two study meteor a logists.

35
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 2: Oh so meteorologists study things in the air, like birds

36
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 2: or planes or Superman.

37
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: Well, actually, Wincent, meteorologists study the weather. It's their job

38
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 1: to find clues that might tell them what the weather

39
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: will be like days in advance, and then to tell

40
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 1: the rest of us if it looks like it'll be sunny, rainy, windy,

41
00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 1: or if a storm's coming.

42
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 2: They find clues. So meteorologists are kind of like, uh,

43
00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 2: weather detectives.

44
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great way to put it. And even

45
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,359
Speaker 1: if you've never heard of the word meteorologist, I know

46
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 1: that you've seen them.

47
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:44,080
Speaker 2: I have. Well, where would I have seen a meteorologist.

48
00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,639
Speaker 1: I should be able to show you right now, Wincon.

49
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 1: Could you hand me the remote control for the TV.

50
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 2: Pleasepe here you go, Emily.

51
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,000
Speaker 1: Today's weather forecast has a last minute cold front that's

52
00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 1: bringing in gusty winds and heavy rain for the remainder

53
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: of the afternoon.

54
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 2: No, the weather reporter the news. I see her every

55
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 2: morning when I'm eating my breakfast and having my cereal.

56
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 2: She stands in front of a big map and waves

57
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 2: a special wand to point out the rain, sun or clouds.

58
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:12,519
Speaker 2: So you're saying she's a meteorologist.

59
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,840
Speaker 1: The weather reporters on the news are an example of

60
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 1: one type of meteorologists. Yes, but there are so many.

61
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 1: Some work in nature, studying the weather in different parts

62
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 1: of the world, like the desert or the middle of

63
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 1: the ocean.

64
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 2: But I wonder how they know what the weather will

65
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 2: be like days from now, Emily. It's like they have

66
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 2: powers to let them see into the future.

67
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,320
Speaker 1: Well, how do you guess what the weather will be

68
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: like on any given day, Winston?

69
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,840
Speaker 2: Well, I might stick my head outside to see if

70
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:42,760
Speaker 2: it's cold and if I need to wear a jacket,

71
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,560
Speaker 2: or I'll look up at the sky to see if

72
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 2: it's sunny or cloudy, or if it looks like it

73
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: might rain. But I was obviously wrong today because it's

74
00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 2: raining now, even though it was very sunny this morning.

75
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: Oh that's okay, Winson. I'll find us somewhere nice and

76
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: sunny to have our picnic. Besides, the weather can be

77
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 1: very complicated and it changes all the time. Even professional

78
00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: weather people aren't right one hundred percent of the time,

79
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: but they do the best they can to predict the

80
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: weather with the help of special instruments and also by

81
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,119
Speaker 1: doing what you do?

82
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 2: What I do? What do you mean, Emily, Well.

83
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 1: When you look up in the sky and see clouds

84
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:24,640
Speaker 1: that are, say, gray and kind of heavy, you might

85
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 1: think that.

86
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 2: It's gonna rain, So I wear rain boots and take

87
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 2: an umbrella with me that day.

88
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:35,479
Speaker 1: Exact Mundo. You know that dark clouds usually mean rain, right,

89
00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,159
Speaker 1: so you plan for that kind of weather. Meteorologists also

90
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:43,240
Speaker 1: look for familiar patterns in the sky, using special instruments

91
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: to try and guess what the weather will be like

92
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: hours or days from now.

93
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,760
Speaker 2: Oh, I get it. So weather people look for patterns

94
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 2: in the clouds and the wind to figure out what

95
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 2: the weather is going to do next.

96
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:57,800
Speaker 1: Yep, And they've been doing this for centuries.

97
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 2: But we didn't have TVs back then, at least I

98
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,000
Speaker 2: think we didn't, or fancy weather equipment.

99
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,440
Speaker 1: That's true. But there were other ways to figure out

100
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 1: the changing weather patterns.

101
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,920
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, like what you know. I had a friend

102
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 2: whose parrot would go crazy every time it was about

103
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,040
Speaker 2: ter rain. He'd be like what and then try to

104
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 2: hide in the back of his cage. It's like the

105
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 2: parrot was psychic or something.

106
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 1: He yes, Winson. Back in the day, people could watch

107
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: animals and insects to find warnings about changes in the weather.

108
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: Animals are just more sensitive to changes in weather than humans.

109
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: For example, birds flying low to look for shelter mint

110
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 1: watch out a storm is approaching.

111
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:44,000
Speaker 2: Oh that's so cool. Animals are so smart.

112
00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, they sure are. Another way that people learned about

113
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 1: the weather hundreds of years ago was from the wisdom

114
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 1: of elders in their communities.

115
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 2: Huh the elders mm.

116
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,919
Speaker 1: Hmm, grannies and grandpas who lived in the same place

117
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,159
Speaker 1: for a long time and took notes tout the weather patterns.

118
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,279
Speaker 1: One of the first known grandpa weather watchers was an

119
00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:08,120
Speaker 1: astronomer called Vaha. He lived in India over twenty five

120
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 1: hundred years ago.

121
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,479
Speaker 2: Wow, Emily, this story goes way back. Yep.

122
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 1: So the hus job as an astronomer was to study

123
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,720
Speaker 1: the stars, and since he was spending all the time

124
00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: looking up at the sky, he started noticing all the

125
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 1: crazy cool patterns that the clouds were making, and he

126
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 1: realized that by studying the clouds he could work out

127
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: what the weather was going to be like that week.

128
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 2: Oh wow, stargazer and weather wizard, that's a pretty cool

129
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 2: business card. And it's kind of like what meteorologists still

130
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 2: do today, look up in the sky for patterns.

131
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: Well, scientists have developed lots of tools and equipment that

132
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:45,839
Speaker 1: help us better predict the weather.

133
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:49,120
Speaker 2: What kind of tools, Emily, Like telescopes that help us

134
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 2: see the clouds a lot better.

135
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 1: Actually, yes, but there are other devices that help us too,

136
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 1: like thermometers and barometers.

137
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 2: Well, I definitely know what thermometers are. They measure how

138
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 2: hot or cool that is outside, right.

139
00:07:02,240 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 1: That's right, And barometers measure air temperature. For example, in

140
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: the winter, if a barometer rides is it usually means

141
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 1: that there's going to be snow in the next few days.

142
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,760
Speaker 1: And if a barometer drops suddenly, it can be a

143
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 1: sign that a tornado is on the way.

144
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 2: A tornado yikes, tornado sounds so cool and scary at

145
00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 2: the same time. But the weather people don't have to

146
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 2: go out into the tornado, do they?

147
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:34,040
Speaker 1: Well, not necessarily, but some meteorologists specialize in chasing tornadoes

148
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: so that they can find out as much about them

149
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 1: as possible.

150
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 2: Chasing tornadoes, but they go so fast that sounds absolutely crazy.

151
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 2: Who would want to be so close to a tornado?

152
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: Well, Incent, there's actually a very well known famous meteorologist

153
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: who's one of the first tornado chasers ever. Want to

154
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 1: hear about them?

155
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, I have to know more about a person

156
00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 2: who thinks charging head first into a tornado. Oh is

157
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 2: a good.

158
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: Idea, I know what you mean. But what he discovered

159
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: ended up helping a lot of people. Now picture this Winston.

160
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 1: A long time ago, back in nineteen fifty three, a

161
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,840
Speaker 1: man named ted Fujiita moved from Japan to the United States,

162
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: where he decided to study the weather. Smack dab in

163
00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:22,160
Speaker 1: the middle of tornado alley.

164
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 2: Tornado alley. I don't know where or what that is,

165
00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 2: but I don't think I want to study there.

166
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,600
Speaker 1: Tornado Alley is a big strip of land in the

167
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 1: middle of the United States where most of the tornadoes

168
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:34,959
Speaker 1: we get a.

169
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 2: Cur yikes, yeah, no, thank you.

170
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:42,720
Speaker 1: Well, Ted wasn't your everyday meteorologists. He loved tornadoes. He

171
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: was fascinated by them, and he wanted to understand them

172
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 1: and unravel their secrets, and in doing so he became

173
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,640
Speaker 1: one of the first ever tornado experts.

174
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 2: Well how to do that, Emily.

175
00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,880
Speaker 1: He jumped in his car and he chased every tornado

176
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 1: he could find, and he wrote down every single detail

177
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: about each one.

178
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 2: Wasn't he afraid of getting two close to them?

179
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 1: Well, I'm sure he was at times, Winston, but he

180
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:10,959
Speaker 1: was also on a mission to learn as much as

181
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 1: he possibly could about them. So he drive as close

182
00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,880
Speaker 1: as possible to take pictures and videos, and he ended

183
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: up making some interesting discoveries like one, Emily, like what

184
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: he saw that tornadoes weren't just one big twister, They

185
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 1: actually had many little twisters inside them. He called it

186
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:32,599
Speaker 1: multiple vortex tornadoes.

187
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 2: Oooh, multiple vortex tornadoes sounds like something out of a

188
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 2: science fiction movie. So did mister Tornado make tornadoes less

189
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 2: scary for people?

190
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, I think so Winston. Thanks to his curiosity

191
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 1: and his hard work, we now know more about these

192
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 1: spinning storms than ever before.

193
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 2: I'm glad there's people like Ted out there, Emily and

194
00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 2: all the other weather people who helped to keep us safe.

195
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:58,840
Speaker 2: It'd be crazy being a weather person out in the wild.

196
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,880
Speaker 2: But I don't know. I'm kind of torn between working

197
00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,079
Speaker 2: outside or in the comfort of a newsroom.

198
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: Actually, Winson, I want to show you some of the

199
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 1: tools that whether people use out in the field and nature.

200
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,920
Speaker 2: That sounds great, All right, let's do it.

201
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: Okay, but you might want to grab a heavy coat.

202
00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:21,560
Speaker 2: Oh a good idea, okay, Emily, but uh, why.

203
00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:23,680
Speaker 1: You'll soon find out hold on tight.

204
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,080
Speaker 2: Where are we? Oh?

205
00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 1: I should have warned you now. It would be a

206
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: good time to put that coat on, Winson, because we

207
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 1: are in Antarctica, the southernmost continent that's at the bottom

208
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: of the world.

209
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 2: Oh oh, wonder they keep it down here. It's freezing

210
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 2: and all I can see is snow and ice for

211
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:54,160
Speaker 2: miles in every direction. So what are we? What are

212
00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 2: we doing here?

213
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,800
Speaker 1: I want to show you another kind of job that

214
00:10:57,960 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: meteorologists do.

215
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I would freeze until you turn into a

216
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,079
Speaker 2: human popsicle.

217
00:11:04,559 --> 00:11:06,839
Speaker 1: Here, Zip up, you'll feel so much better.

218
00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:13,080
Speaker 2: Thanks, Emily. That's better. Hey, check it out. There's a

219
00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:17,079
Speaker 2: tiny orange dot going up that hill. Is that a person?

220
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it looks like it. Whincent a meteorologist? I

221
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 1: guess do you hear that?

222
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 2: It sounds like that guy's fixing something on that tower.

223
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,120
Speaker 1: I bet you're right. There are no repair people way

224
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: out here in the middle of nowhere, so it's the

225
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: meteorologist's job to fix any sensors that get messed up

226
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:37,439
Speaker 1: by the extreme weather.

227
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:40,920
Speaker 2: Go gotcha very cold? I mean cool.

228
00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 1: Another neat thing about meteorologists is that there are over

229
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,320
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty weather stations across the United States

230
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:52,080
Speaker 1: and hundreds more across the world to help meteorologists learn

231
00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:55,439
Speaker 1: more about the climate. And because of climate change, the

232
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,320
Speaker 1: weather and the climates have been acting a lot more

233
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,119
Speaker 1: strangely in recent years.

234
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I've heard of climate change, I think, but

235
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 2: what does that really mean?

236
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: Climate change is when the Earth's temperature gets hotter because

237
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 1: of too much pollution in the air. It can make

238
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,920
Speaker 1: the weather act funny and cause problems for people, animals,

239
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 1: and nature. So meteorologists have been watching for those changes

240
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,680
Speaker 1: and learning how to keep the planet safe.

241
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,400
Speaker 2: WHOA, that's a big job. And where else do meteorologists

242
00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,560
Speaker 2: work besides news and weather stations, Emily.

243
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,760
Speaker 1: Some work for the government or in research institutions. Some

244
00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: study the weather at universities, or some work in research

245
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,439
Speaker 1: labs to create new tools and instruments.

246
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 2: Huh, I bet you've got to be super smart to

247
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:41,680
Speaker 2: try and out smart the weather.

248
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,680
Speaker 1: Well that's all the time we have on grown Up Today.

249
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 2: Oh wow. I don't know about you, Emily, but I

250
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:50,079
Speaker 2: was blur.
