Weather and Poetry


A few a weeks ago I was watching The Weather Channel and a meteorologist who was reporting on location personified a historical landmark in relation to how much weather it had seen.  This made me realize meteorologists would write some great poems. 
I did an Internet search, and this is what I found,


I clicked on Weather Poetry then chose poems from “The Breeze.”
I did not read all of them, but I really liked “The Adventures of Annie Mometer” by Lorena Pepper
It uses terminology related to the field while still keeping the rhythm of the “Twas the Night Before Christmas.”   I felt like I learned something after reading this poem.  I could imagine her out in the field doing her job.
