Jeff Berardelli is WFLA’s Chief Meteorologist and Climate SpecialistTAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — Most years we say it could happen here. In 2024, it did. The worst storms were Helene and Milton. Two storms just 13 days apart. They were very different hurricanes, devastating different parts of Tampa Bay. Helene organized into a tropical storm on Sept. 25 and set a course that skirted Florida’s west coast. By the next day, it was a category 4 hurricane just 100 miles off Pinellas County.

Jeff Berardelli is WFLA’s Chief Meteorologist and Climate SpecialistTAMPA, Fla. (WFLA) — In today’s Berardelli Bonus, we take you on a tour inside the funnel of a tornado with dramatic, first-of-its-kind video. With winds over 100 mph, it may seem impossible to fly a drone into the buzz saw of a tornado. But it’s now been done three times by Nelson Tucker, Louis Tucker and Tanner Beard. They founded a non-profit called the Otus project — observations of tornadoes by UAV systems.

BFD... You got to love Hansen: "Earth’s albedo has decreased .5%. We described this change as a BFD because it has staggering implications. A 1.7 W/m2 increase of absorbed solar energy is huge. If it were a climate forcing, it would be equivalent to a CO2 increase of 138 ppm"
