Laura's guests are Dan St. Jean, Meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Gray, Maine; Jim Van Dongen, Public Information Officer for the New Hampshire Office of Emergency Management; Bill Boynton, Public Information Officer for the NH Department of Transportation; Captain Greg Heilshorn, Public Information Officer of the New Hampshire National Guard; Charles Watson, Public Information Officer for Hooksett Emergency Management and Governor John Lynch.

After the water receeds and life becomes normal again, I hope that the citizens of New Hampshire will begin to take a concerned look at the last 7 months of our weather pattern: fatal flooding in the Monadnock region in Oct. 2005, snowless, mild winter and recent statewide flooding. Couple this with the borage of hurricanes in '05 and realize that we are seeing the direct results of global warning. This change in weather is having a finacial impact on our residents which seems to be the only motivator at times to make change. I hope that a dialogue will ensue this disaster asking the hard questions and making real change. Thank you for this opportunity!
