Have you ever felt anxious about the weather, or wondered if you should cancel plans due to the forecast? You're not alone. In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Millicent Rose, a Professor of Clinical Psychology at Pepperdine University, to explore the often-overlooked intersection of weather and mental health. Dr. Rose discusses the causes behind weather-related fears, phobias, and trauma, and explains the various treatment options available for those who experience debilitating anxiety when severe weather threatens to strike. She offers a surprising perspective on how the weather is communicated during dangerous situations, revealing what meteorologists and emergency officials are getting wrong when it comes to addressing the mental wellbeing of those in harm's way. Whether you struggle with weather anxiety yourself, know someone who does, or you're a weather professional looking to better serve your community, this conversation offers practical insights, hope, validation, and a roadmap toward finding peace of mind.
