Today featured a full hour of weather talk with Paul Huttner. In the first half, Huttner pulled back the curtain on the science of forecasting snow, wind and cold with the Weather Underground's Bob Henson.

Later in the hour, Huttner spoke with Australian climate scientist Tim Flannery. Flannery's book, "The Weathermakers", sounded an early alarm about the effects of a changing climate. His latest book, "Atmosphere of Hope," focuses on potential solutions for climate changes.
