We've moved!


We are now getting settled in Asheville, North Carolina. Chris has started a new faculty position in the Atmospheric Science Department at the University of North Carolina-Asheville and I am working two part-time positions: one working for the National Climatic Data Center and the other working as a research assistant for OU on my new PhD topic of heavy U.S. rainfall events.

National Climatic Data Center I am now working part time at the National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, North Carolina. My duties include writing the monthly U.S. Climate Report and the Climate-at-a-Glance. You can view them online by visiting the Climate Monitoring Branch web page.

PhD Research I have recently had a change in research topics to better suit my interests and my new work at NCDC. My new topic will involve developing a dynamic and synoptic climatology of heavy rainfall events in the eastern U.S. from 1950-2007. You can still view some of my old conference preprints and other publications from my work with the CASA project on the research link at left.

Web Site Updates I have recently updated my photographs page and have added several new pages: family, friends, Thanksgiving 2005, and 29 May 2004 chase. If you have a Facebook account, I have placed more photos online there.

On the left is a new link to the "GoodSearch" search engine, which will donate money to the charity of your choice every time you do a search. Please consider using this engine to raise support for IDES--International Disaster Emergency Services, which sends help and support all over the globe (including the U.S.) whenever a disaster strikes.

Other interests I have been quite busy recently with our move to North Carolina, switching research topics, and starting a new job. I still hope to have a little time to enjoy some of my crafting-related hobbies, namely rubber stamping, and put some more photos online once things settle down a bit.

It's a fun hobby, especially because you get to share the results with others in order to bring them some love, joy, and/or encouragement. To see some examples of others' stamping and some stamping-related websites, visit my "Favorite Links" page at the top.
