Weather Forecasting and Online Criticism
Weather forecasts don't always go as planned, but when does criticism cross the line into bullying?
In this episode of the Breaking Bullying Podcast, I sit down with Lane Ingle-Shaw, founder of Midwest Weather, to discuss the online criticism that comes with forecasting the weather for hundreds of thousands of followers.
We talk about:
• Growing Midwest Weather to over 250,000 followers
• The pressure of making public weather forecasts
• Criticism from viewers and other weather forecasters
• Where criticism crosses the line into bullying
• Why it's important to remember there's a real person behind every forecast
Whether you're a weather enthusiast, content creator, or someone who has faced online criticism, this conversation offers a perspective many people never think about.
