Lixion wrote more advisories and forecast discussions than anyone in NHC history. Hear stories about how it was done back in the day, the legendary meteorologists he worked with, and how a kid from Cuba became a key U.S. hurricane forecaster and communicator to the rest of the world’s weather services on hurricanes.
