Fox News 25 interviews Rob Gilman
What is Forensic Meteorology?
Forensic meteorology is meteorology applied to the process of reconstructing weather events for a certain time and location. This is done by acquiring and analyzing local weather reports such as surface observations, radar and satellite images, other data, and eyewitness accounts.
Forensic meteorology is most often used in court cases, including insurance disputes, personal injury cases, and murder investigations. With increasing losses from severe weather in recent years, the demand for forensic meteorological services has also grown.
We’ve given court testimony in numerous jurisdictions around New England. Rob Gilman, our Chief Meteorologist, has qualified as an expert witness in Suffolk, Norfolk, Plymouth, Barnstable and Middlesex counties.
