And for those who don't know what AFD is, can you explain?

Several times a day, the National Weather Service issues an area forecast discussion, and it's basically a very technical discussion of how the weather is and is changing over the next seven to ten days.

And a lot of it's very detailed, very technical.

They are very long, sometimes a thousand, two thousand, or three thousand words.

Nobody has time to read all that if you're a broadcast meteorologist, and you've got to be on the air in twenty minutes, and you got a webcast, and you got a tease that you gotta do.

I mean, there's so much that you're, you're juggling.

And every broadcast meteorologist at some point tries to read that 'cause it's another set of eyes looking at the data.

So, uh, you know, that's, that's like the concern I think of a lot of meteorologists like, you know, "I don't want my likeness being stolen."
