WBZ’s Chief Meteorologist Eric Fisher Talks About the Coming Solar Eclipse with LINX Science Campers

Wellesley, MA – July 27, 2017 – Blue skies and low humidity made the ideal backdrop for WBZ’s Chief Meteorologist Eric Fisher’s highly anticipated presentation to LINX science campers on Friday morning, July 21st, on a grassy knoll of Regis, a leading Catholic university in Greater Boston located in Weston.

Fisher shared his thoughts with campers, “Growing up here I used to love the storms. I would go out to the front porch to feel the wind and watch the lightning.” The kids (2nd through 8th grade) were excited and curious, and asked about tornados and hurricanes during the 45-minute presentation. He spoke about a typical day for a meteorologist, and explained how he tracks the weather, with detail on how radar works and how it helps him track the weather.

Fisher’s specifics on the upcoming solar eclipse sparked a level of curiosity and excitement among the campers, which they carried throughout the day. Kids could be heard leaving the presentation talking about doing more research on the solar eclipse, and one camper said, “I can’t wait for the eclipse, it is so cool!”
