Award-winning meteorologist Nick Stewart told Interesting Engineering Starlink RV 'did not have a single hiccup' during a recent storm chase.
the Starlink RV internet he used for his latest storm chase on Jan. 16 "did not have a single hiccup," and it "was better than any cell data I've used."
Ultimately, Stewart continued storm chasing into his professional career, in part, due to the fact it can save lives. It can do this by helping to provide data that helps understand storms better, as well as a compelling alert for the public, who may otherwise ignore weather warnings.by a Michigan State University scientist showed that an alarming 37 percent of surveyed respondents didn’t understand that a warning is the most urgent National Weather Service statement during severe weather.
It’s a risky business, Stewart explained, but it’s one that has bagged him an Emmy award. On May 24, 2019, he and his team used a LiveU coverage unit, which connects to several cell providers at once, to live stream a tornado approaching Iowa City, from its formation to its demise. The video can be viewed above.
However, the day that prompted Stewart to get Starlink came on March 5, 2022, as several tornadoes struck the state of Iowa. "I tried to use our LiveU at one time and could not, but when I hooked it up via WiFi to my Starlink router, we were good to go. That in itself proved its worthiness.
In fact, Stewart himself has faced some dangerous close calls while out storm chasing. "Most recently, on Aug. 10, 2020, the costliest thunderstorm disaster in the US hit the state of Iowa," he explained.
