The award plaque states:
"For your commitment in relaying awareness and preparedness information to the American people
and our Caribbean neighbors through websites, internet broadcasts, billboards, and the Barometer Bob Show".
This is a first in so many ways.
Robert Brookens began Hurricane Hollow Weather in May 1998 to share weather information through the Internet. The website has grown to receive millions of visits during each hurricane season.
Through the Barometer Bob Show and Hurricane Hollow's Eye on the Storm, Robert continuously promotes awareness and preparedness of severe weather and hurricanes throughout the year on the Weather Radio Broadcast Network.
"This has been a great honor to be recognized by the awards committee and the people that work year round to protect and warn us of severe weather and hurricanes.", said Robert.
Many people have been touched by the work Robert and a small group of volunteers have done. He will continue to warn people of the dangers, and how to be ready the next time a storm threatens their area.
You can find out more by going to Hurricane Hollow Weather or U.S.Weather Watchers.Com. Also, go and listen to his show at The Barometer Bob Show every Thursday night at 8PM/ET on WRBN.Net. |
