I don’t usually post obituaries on this blog, but wanted to mention the passing of Dr. Jim O’Brien, retired from Florida State University. Dr. O’Brien worked for over 40 years studying climate variability and its impacts on the Southeast. He helped found COAPS at FSU and served for a time as the Florida State Climatologist. You can read more about him here. He helped found the Southeast Climate Consortium, which produced many articles, workshops and graduate theses over the last decades.
