A long-standing joke in my hometown of Cleveland is that if you don’t like the weather, wait 15 minutes. I think that’s the punchline for much of the Midwest, and the last few weeks certainly provided the windup for weather that was anything but funny. Tornadoes in Michigan, Illinois and Indiana ripped through neighborhoods and businesses. In our latest podcast, Trish Kerin and I discussed NATECH events and why some facilities are still caught off guard when extreme weather strikes. –Traci Purdum, editor-in-chief
