June, a bright and motivated young woman, always excelled in school. The atmosphere fascinated her, so she chose to study meteorology. A person as intelligent and capable as June should be a welcome addition to any science, but that wasn’t the case.

This is the story of how meteorology and broadcasting pioneer June Bacon-Bercey forever changed the face of weather.
