Foothills Weather Network, Caldwell County NC Foothills Weather Network; With you before, during, and after the storm While doing this they developed what was then Burke Weather Incorporated. The reason?

Foothills Weather Network is dedicated to keeping you safe before, during, and after the storm! Foothills Weather Network started in 2009 as a hobby between two friends that have a passion for weather forecasting. Seeing a gap in TV Market coverage across the foothills, Chris and Jason started using a personal page to forecast and track severe weather events. In 2010, following a very bus

y winter and severe weather season Chris and Jason quickly started looking for help to cover the weather. Burke Weather Incorporated became an official Non-Profit forecasting business in 2013. It still exists today and remains a Non-Profit that houses our Emergency Services Team and runs our weather education. Burke Weather Incorporated still runs solely off donations from you, the public. We brought on Tim Sawyer, Steve Wasko, Scotty Powell and Daniel Crawley to work with us. In 2015 however we decided to develop a for profit company, Foothills Weather Network. Well it was simply to be able to sell advertising and develop a way other than donations to pay the bills. Foothills Weather Network operates on a budget of a little over $1000.00 a month. Keeping our service free has been a priority since day 1. Advertisements allows us to provide you life saving weather information without costing you a dime. Contact Chris White at [email protected] to get more information on how your business can help our forecasting remain free to the public. Today we also have interns that work with us from various universities across The State of North Carolina. These interns have went on to work at Accu Weather and other weather companies across the USA. We have also brought on Sinead Lockhart, who graduated from NC State with her degree in Atmospheric Science. The newest official meteorologist though is Kyle Noel, who graduated from UNC Asheville in 2017 with his degree in Atmospheric Sciences. In May 2017 Foothills Weather Network moved into it's new office within the McDowell County Emergency Operations Center. From this state of the art EOC Foothills Weather Network can have direct contact during severe weather situations with our partners at The National Weather Service and Emergency Management from across the state. We continue to grow and expand! We appreciate the support that each of our followers give us daily. We enjoy our jobs and we look forward to serving you for many years to come.

There is a lot going on in the atmosphere today that is expected to increase storm chances.

An upper low just to the east of Florida is drifting west, the northern extent of that upper low has moved into the Carolinas. Storms today will move in coordination with the upper flow. Storms today across western North Carolina will be slow movers at first but will gradually go west and southwest. Be mindful of that today when monitoring the radar.
