| Hello/Intro 1938 Return to index of stories... |
Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to New Hampshire Weather can be unpredictable and volatile this time of year. Case in point, last week's record flooding and the Tornado that touched down in Hampton Falls Sunday night. All this and the Atlantic Hurricane Season hasn't even begun. An active Hurricane season is being predicted this year, Are WE due for another one? NH has certainly seen its share over the years. The Hurricane of '38, came on the heels of a wet, damp summer in New Hampshire. When it struck in September, the state was gripped by howling winds and rivers running wild leaving catastrophic damage behind. 13 people were killed. Hurricane Gloria's arrival in September of 19-85 was much anticipated. In the years between, New Hampshire had weathered several "severe" hurricanes. Preparations were taken, and a state of emergency was called, but in the end, damage was limited to mostly downed trees and wires. Gloria's bark was apparently worse than her bite. And, 6 years later in August of '91, Hurricane Bob paid a visit to NH and another state of emergency was called. The toll was much greater: NH lost two lives and sustained eight million dollars in damage. |

The 2006 Atlantic hurricane forecast predicts an 80% chance of an above-normal hurricane season. Here to talk about the potential impact on New Hampshire: David Brown, an Assistant Professor of Geography at UNH and NH's State Climatologist. Welcome. Q DAVID: Is NH overdue for a hurricane? ** factors contributed to more active seasons ** chances we'll see one Q Is Last week's FLOODING -- a PREDICTOR in any way of more Strange wx to come? Q GIVEN the random nature of weather -- how difficult is it to predict what will happen this Hurricane Season??? Q The 2005 Hurricane Season -- most active in 154 years of record keeping. WHY??? Katrina, the costliest and deadliest hurricane. 2005 had most NAMED storms. Q A TORNDADO touched down in Hampton Falls on Sunday. What can you tell us about it? Q What triggered it?? Tornados are infrequent - but NOT unprecedented. Q There is talk the 2006 season could become the 4th hyperactive season in a row? What's going on??? Q When we see unsual wx patterns the issue of global warming comes up. Any CONNECTION? Q Every AUTUMN brings the risk of another hurricane. That's when we're most vulnerable. How accurate are these Hurricane Forecasts -- need to be taken seriously. Q Does our topography keep HURRICANES at a minimum??? DAVID BROWN.thank you |
| Intro Marlow Fire Return to index of stories... |
The hurricane of 19-38 played a big role in this next story. It was 65 years ago that New Hampshire suffered its worst-ever forest fire. Several towns in the southwestern part of the state saw massive destruction. Outlook's Richard Ager traveled to Marlow and caught up with a man who remembers the fire as if it were yesterday. |

Charlie Strickland was the star of a recent documentary film about the Marlow fire which debuted at the Marlow Historical Society. |
| IntroUNH Graduation Return to index of stories... |
It's graduation season in New Hampshire and the class of 2006 needs to turn its attention to what's next such as landing that first job. The University of New Hampshire on Saturday celebrated its 136-th commencement. Last week's record-rainfall forced the school to move the ceremony from the football field to the higher ground, artifical turf of Memorial Field. More than 24-hundred undergraduate and graduate students earned their degrees. They got a lesson on life from Commencement speaker Mike O'Malley, the star of the CBS comedy "Yes, Dear." He's also a 19-88 UNH grad. The days after graduation can be confusing and scary. Whether the decision includes entering the professional world, graduate school or moving back home, a plan of action is essential. |
| Intro Grad Advice Return to index of stories... |
Bethany Cooper is here to talk about the plan for graduates and their families. She's the manager of Employer Relations and Recruiting in the UNH Advising and Career Center. Welcome. Q What is the job outlook for graduates this year? Q So what do you do with an indecisive new college graduate? How do you get them to move forward after graduation? Q It's hard to believe this happens but what about parents helping graduates with the job search? Q Has the ease of the Internet given grads a false-sense of security? Is posting your resume on a website enough? Q What's the most important thing you advise graduates to do once they leave college? Q What about the graduate that has no direction? Is grad school really the answer? Q What about cover letters? Q Is the key persistence? |
