45. Tropical Weather Watch: The Role Of A Meteorological Forecaster In Grenada, with Kassia Johnson
Ever wondered what a meteorologist actually does every day? Or how pilots know what conditions they’ll have for landing in a new country? What’s an Aeronautical Meteorological Forecaster anyway?? Now you’ll get to talk with one.
Kassia Johnson is a graduate of the St. Joseph’s Convent St. George’s and the T.A. Marryshow Community College. She is an Aeronautical Meteorological Forecaster at the Maurice Bishop International Airport in Grenada.
Kassie started working at the Airports Authority in 2013 as a Meteorological Observer and was later promoted to a Forecaster in 2019. Her studies for this career took place at the Caribbean Institute for Meteorology and Hydrology in Husbands, Barbados. She also holds a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from Indiana University East.
