Just days before storm season officially gets underway, we get a joint forecast of hurricane season from the best in the business. Forty-two years after joining First Coast News in 1982, Chief Meteorologist Tim Deegan signs off for the last time this Friday. As he passes the meteorological mantle to longtime colleague and First Coast News morning anchor Lew Turner, we hear their reflections on the evolving challenge of weather forecasting and the moments that make the experience worthwhile.
Guests:
- Tim Deegan, retiring chief meteorologist at First Coast News.
- Lewis Turner, Good Morning Jacksonville anchor and incoming chief meteorologist at First Coast News.
Then, who “owns” birth? We preview an in-depth community discussion about the economics of childbirth and the maternity crisis that too often puts profit and convenience ahead of the health of mother and child. “Birth, Economics & The Maternity Crisis” will be held at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday in the HCA Florida Memorial Auditorium.
Guest:
- Jennie Joseph, midwife and maternal health advocate.
And, we ask our resident spaceman about mutually supporting evidence for the birth of our universe, as well as microwaves some consider a "smoking gun" for the Big Bang. On June 20, MOSH hosts a program called “Big Bang, Nuff Said.”
Guests:
- Eddie Whisler, director of the planetarium at the Museum of Science & History.
