Program Description

Description

Join 8-time Emmy-nominated meteorologist Joe Rao as he talks to us about the science of astro-meteorology. Do changes in the Sun and Moon influence our weather patterns? Do the movement of the planets have any control over our climate? Can we really put any credence in the forecasts that are issued annually by the Old Farmer's Almanac or other weather experts?  The answers may surprise you!  Plus you'll get a look at the forecast for 2026!

Jericho cardholders only until 14 days before event.
