150 : Talking Rain with Richard Zurawski
In this episode I talk to meteorologist, documentary film producer, TV host, writer, author, university lecturer, public speaker and media personality Richard Zurawski about Rain and explore the following questions: How does rain form? What kinds of places have more rain than others - and why? What is in rain besides water? How much nitrogen is in rain - and why is there nitrogen in rain? What is acid rain, is it still a problem? What is cloud-seeding? Does the direction of the wind affect rain? How does geography affect rain? Do the old sayings work (e.g. red sky by night, sailor's delight)?
