"Five Good Answers" from Meteorologist Janice Huff

Last week I introduced you to Janice Huff, meteorologist and the voice of Cyberchase's new character, Stormy Gale. The character of Stormy Gale officially debuts on April 20; in that episode, Huff will also appear as herself in a segment about math and the weather called "Weather Watchers" (check local listings).

Huff answered your questions about appearing on Cyberchase, teaching kids about math, and what led her to become a meteorologist. Check out her answers below and let us know what you think.more

Ask Meteorologist - and Cyberchase Special Guest - Janice Huff About the Weather

New Yorkers know Janice Huff, NBC4's metereologist, as a trusted source for reliable weather information. Now a national audience will have the chance to meet Huff, albeit in a slightly altered form: She'll soon appear as the voice of animated character Stormy Gale, and as a live version of herself, on PBS KIDS' popular Cyberchase program.

Huff's appearance on the show is part of its new Weather Watchers initiative. Weather Watchers will teach kids how weather impacts the environment while demonstrating how they can use math to explore those impacts.

Huff says that she uses math every day, and that once kids watch Stormy Gale on Cyberchase, they'll "never look at the weather report the same way again - and they may even want to test out those forecasts for themselves!"

Without further ado - meet Stormy Gale: more
