ERNST Norman, Oklahoma 2020 COLORFUL LANGUAGE: INVESTIGATING THE INTERPRETATION OF THE STORM PREDICTION CENTER’S CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK BY BROADCAST METEOROLOGISTS AND THE US PUBLIC A THESIS APPROVED FOR THE SCHOOL OF METEOROLOGY BY THE COMMITTEE CONSISTING OF Dr. Harold Brooks, Chair Dr. Elinor Martin Dr. Scott Salesky Dr. Naoko Sakaeda Dr. Joseph Ripberger Dr. Kodi Berry © Copyright by SEAN R. ERNST 2020 All Rights Reserved. Acknowledgements I would first like to thank my lead advisors, Dr. Joe Ripberger and Dr. Harold Brooks, for providing me guidance, opportunity, and funding to perform this research, without them I would not have been able to perform any of the research presented in this paper. I would also like to thank Dr. Kodi Berry and Holly Obermeier, who welcomed me into their CTA broadcaster study with open arms and helped me organize and record interviews with broadcasters from across the nation. As part of that effort, I would like to thank Joseph Trujillo and Emma Landeros for assisting with note-taking and moderation during the focus group and CTA interviews, both helped me keep track of all the information flying around so that I could focus on grilling the broadcasters! I’d be remiss without thanking Dr. Patrick Marsh for his assistance in outlining the development of the 5-tier SPC outlook and for encouraging my work on this project, having the ability to share my results and learn about future SPC product development was invaluable to this project.

  • 2008 Annual Town Report To
    The CENTER at Medfield TOWN OF MEDFIELD Annual Town Report FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2008 In January 2007 construction began on a new Adult Community Center with funding appropriated by Town Meeting. After a lengthy construction season the newly named CENTER at Medfield opened its doors with a grand opening celebration and dedication on January 6, 2008. The brand new 8,000 square foot facility is located at One Ice House Road off of West Street. The CENTER at Medfield is now the permanent home to the Council on Aging. In addition the CENTER provides municipal meeting space and is available for function rental. The fee for the rental helps to offset the operational cost of the building thereby reducing the burden on the taxpayer. The CENTER at Medfield is now the location for all local, state and national elections for the residents of Medfield. Cover Photograph by Seymour Levy. 358th Anniversary ANNUAL REPORT DEDICATION In an age when people change jobs at the drop of a hat, when everyone is from someplace else, going someplace else, it is good to reflect on a time when life was more stable, when people were born, lived and died in the same community; when friendships were lifelong and a job was not just a job, but a life-shaping opportunity. This year, George DeVenanzi, a mechanic with the Public Works Department, retired after a career with the Town of Medfield that spanned nearly seven decades. In 1940, as a fourteen year-old, he began working for the Cemetery Department, and several years later he transferred to the Highway Department, where he worked until his retirement.

  • Annual Town Report
    TOWN OF MEDFIELD Annual Town Report FOR THE YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2012 Robert McCarthy Memorial On September 17, 2011 a dedication ceremony and unveiling was held for the Robert McCarthy Memorial at the site of his old Blacksmith Shop on Janes Avenue. This historical marker commemorates not only Mr. McCarthy but memorializes the history of blacksmithing in Medfield. The monument was the idea of Mr. Myron McLane who had the privilege of being an apprentice under Mr. McCarthy and continues to operate a blacksmith shop in the area. The monument features a 225 pound anvil which was purchased by Mr. McCarthy in 1931 and remained in the blacksmith shop until it was purchased at auction by Mr. McLane in 1996.
