Harrison Fortier

I have over thirty plus years experience in public safety and am a retired police officer. I'm also a certified paramedic, and firefighter. One thing all those careers have in common is that I had to work outside in all types of weather, especially bad weather. That is probably why I have such an interest in the weather.

I'm also an active amateur radio operator (W1HAF), and trained Skywarn weather spotter. I maintain several weather stations, one at the Town of Waterford Emergency Operations Center. This station transmits it's data over amateur radio via Aprs. I remain actively involved in public safety.
