Weathering the Storm: Navigating New England's Climate Volatility

New England is experiencing more and more weather extremes due to climate change. We will focus on increased weather volatility, both in seasonal patterns and individual weather events, and discuss strategies to help landscape professionals, as well as snow and ice managers, navigate these changes more effectively.

About our speaker

Mark is an accomplished meteorologist with a strong foundation in weather broadcasting and technology. His broadcasting career began at WAGM-TV in Presque Isle, Maine in 2005. Before breaking into the broadcast industry, he spent nearly two years in the green and snow removal sector with Eastern Landcare in Northeast Pennsylvania. His next opportunity brought him back to his home state, where he spent more than 14 years at WFMZ-TV in Allentown, Pennsylvania, solidifying his reputation as a trusted meteorologist. In 2020, Mark transitioned from weather broadcasting to his current role at trueWeather, where he serves as a meteorologist and Content Project Coordinator, combining his expertise in meteorology with his skills in software engineering.
