Founder & Publisher of Orbis Weather

Paul Harrison is the founder and publisher of Orbis Weather, an independent weather and natural-hazards information platform covering significant weather events and environmental hazards around the world.

📰 Approach to Weather Reporting

Orbis Weather prioritizes information from official meteorological, geological, scientific and emergency-management organizations whenever possible.

These include sources such as NOAA, the National Weather Service, National Hurricane Center, USGS, NASA, the World Meteorological Organization and national meteorological agencies around the world.

Paul’s role includes researching and selecting significant developments, comparing information from multiple sources, organizing complex weather and hazard information and adding context to help readers understand what is happening and what may happen next.

Technology and research tools may assist with monitoring and organizing the large amount of information involved in global weather coverage, but authoritative weather and hazard information is checked against reliable sources whenever practical.

🎯 Why Orbis Weather?

Weather information is everywhere, but important information is often scattered across numerous government agencies, scientific organizations, satellite platforms and monitoring networks.

Orbis Weather was created to bring that information together in a clearer and more accessible format.

The objective is not simply to show readers another weather map or data feed.

It’s to answer three questions:

What’s happening?

Why does it matter?

What should we watch next?

🛡️ Independent Publisher

Orbis Weather is independently operated and is not affiliated with NOAA, the National Weather Service, National Hurricane Center, USGS or any other government agency.

Orbis Weather does not issue official weather warnings.

During dangerous weather or natural disasters, readers should always follow forecasts, warnings and emergency instructions issued by the appropriate official authorities.
