By Nathan MooreIn today's fast-paced and unpredictable business environment, accurate weather forecasting has become a crucial tool for gaining a competitive edge.

This commentary first appeared on the website of the National Federation of Community Broadcasters and is republished here with permission. Thirty-five years ago, I was sitting in my fourth-grade classroom. My teacher handed out “How I spent my summer vacation” worksheets, and I think I wrote about going to the beach. This year was less typical. In July, I visited 13 community radio stations in five states around Appalachia, from Knoxville, Tenn., to the Eastern panhandle of West Virginia.

So earlier this month, I visited 13 radio stations throughout central & southern Appalachia. Mostly community radio stations, as well as a couple college ones. I wrote about eight of those stations… and then I got a head cold, lost steam, came home, and had to do all the stuff one does after being gone for 17 days. Today, I’m offering a quick update and some bonus content. I’m back home in Charlottesville now, and my cold is gone.

I have asked several friends to imagine the most Nathan vacation ever… Most of them guessed going on a road trip to visit a bunch of community radio stations around Appalachia. As it turns out, I am predictable. I grew up in Huntington, West Virginia. Went to college in Morgantown. Have family near Charleston. Have grandparents and cousins from Logan. I biked and kayaked Pocahontas County with my dad. I have enormous respect for Appalshop. I spent a little time in Keyser.
