WBZ’s Eric Fisher Talks Science with LINX Campers

Wellesley, MA – July 24, 2018 – Beautiful blue skies, temps in the low 80’s, and eager-to-learn LINX science campers greeted WBZ’s Chief Meteorologist Eric Fisher for his visit Monday afternoon, July 16th, at Regis College in Weston.

"The best time to get someone interested in science is when they're most curious about how the world works...and the LINX camp is perfect for that! I'm always amazed how bright and inquisitive these kids are. Hopefully a couple become talented meteorologists that put me to shame someday," said Fisher.

The 2nd – 8th grade campers were interested and asked a lot of questions about his background and different types of weather phenomena. The kids listened intently about how he got into meteorology, how it has changed since he started, and what his job entails. They learned that technology has changed how the job is performed today. Fisher emphasized some of the ways weather apps can be useful, like tracking storms on the go and getting immediate warnings anywhere in the country.

This was Fisher’s 3rd year chatting with LINX’s young science campers. His passion for meteorology and helping kids understand and appreciate science and the world around them couldn’t be more clear.
