About me

Industry Science
Occupation Meteorologist
Location Rapid City, South Dakota, United States
Introduction Chris Orr is a Certified Consulting Meteorologist (American Meteorological Society #579 in 1997). Weather Forecasting – everything from specific forecasts for the next 3 days to detailed 60-day outlooks, whatever you need. Cash Crops and Ag – forecasts for agriculture have been used from the trading floor to the farm, managing chemical applications, avoiding the high cost of replanting and avoiding freezes at harvest. Commodity traders use our forecasts to reliably trade on significant weather changes throughout the growing season. Speaking and teaching - bringing weather knowledge to you. As a professional speaker, I customize my presentations to the audience at hand, and work to bring relevance weather and how it impacts society. Mixing case studies, stories, and actionable recommendations together with humor, easy-to-understand language, and a dynamic presenting style, I provide much more than buzzwords and back-patting. I give you inspiration for action. From keynoting major events to presenting to your private business meeting, my efforts are in helping organizations adopt the wealth of weather information available and derive value from their use.
Interests Weather, meteorology, forecasting, agriculture, ranching, history of the American West.
