At the end of the day, knowing exactly how, when, and where these violent storms happen can give more warning time for everyone involved.
The data she collects is then modeled and studied on computers--with math, physics, and computer science working hand in hand with meteorology.
For her, driving around in a Doppler radar truck aiming towards storms is a normal day in the office.
She now studies tornadogenesis, or how tornadoes form, and what causes them to get weaker versus strengthen.
When she realized people researched weather for a job, she was hooked.
Robin Tanamachi has been captivated by tornadoes and extreme weather her entire life.
