Description

Guest: Pete Gaynor, FEMA’s Acting AdministratorIntro: In the new millennium, the United States has been struck by dozens of tropical cyclones, ranging from rain-soaked tropical storms to catastrophic Category 5 hurricanes.  Regardless of the intensity, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, more commonly known as FEMA, has been in place for every single event. Today, we have the current acting administrator Pete Gaynor with us.  In just a short period of time in office, he has had to manage intense river flooding in the Midwest this spring and currently Hurricane Dorian scraping up the Southeast coast. We’ll discuss how his journey has unfolded thus far and how his extensive background in Emergency Management has prepared him for the task.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

You see it every day. It’s the subject of poetry, literature, art and film. It can inspire spiritual experiences, and it can destroy everything you have ever worked for. It is the weather, and no one knows it better than we do. Join us every week for the agony and the ecstasy of the one story that the entire world participates in and the science behind it. From the people behind The Weather Channel TV network.
