Hailstorms cause billions of dollars in damage each year, but how do we study hail to build stronger homes and communities?
In Episode 109 of the GeoTrek Podcast, we dive into the world of hail research, forensic meteorology, and building science with two incredible guests:
Brenna Meisenzahl – Researcher at the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS), leading field studies on hail formation and its impacts on buildings.
Sara Hudson – a Forensic Meteorologist at CNC Catastrophe & National Claims, specializing in storm analysis and severe weather damage assessments.
Together, we explore:
🔬 How scientists simulate hailstorms in a lab
💰 The financial toll of hailstorms and how we can reduce losses
🏠 How building materials and design impact hail damage
🛰️ How forensic meteorologists analyze past storms to assess damage
