Description
Thanks for tuning in! Last week, forecasters updated their outlook calling for an 'extremely active (https://www.wafb.com/2020/08/05/updated-forecast-calls-extremely-active-hurricane-season/)' remainder of the 2020 Atlantic Hurricane Season. Simone and Jacques chat with WAFB Meteorologist Steve Caparotta (https://twitter.com/SteveWAFB) to get his insights on the update and what is driving it, as well as discuss prior record-breaking seasons and other trends. On the second half of the show, Jacques and Simone discuss a number of coastal updates, including reflecting on the legacy of Dr. Sherwood "Woody" Gagliano, highlighting the ongoing Mid-Breton Sediment Diversion scoping process (http://mississippiriverdelta.org/your-voice-is-needed-why-and-how-to-participate-in-the-mid-breton-sediment-diversion-scoping-process/) and unveiling a new Coastal Community Cookbook (http://mississippiriverdelta.org/recipes).
