Passion for Weather...UnderStoryWeather CEO and Founder Is On This Positive Podcast
Summary: Kubicek started Understory after he received a Master’s in Atmospheric Science. His lifelong passion of weather drove him to create awarding winning curriculum for Weather and Climate 101 at UW-Madison, receive “Outstanding M.S. Thesis” for his work on cloud microphysics and hail formation, and now revolutionize the weather space with next generation weather stations. AlexKubicek, CEO and CO FOUNDER chats with Positive Phil.Kubicek has lead Understory through an accelerator program, a hardware seed stage, an institutional seed financing of $2M lead by True Ventures, and a Series A financing of $7.5M lead by 4490 Ventures and strategic participation by Monsanto. Understory is a weather data analytics company that builds, deploys, and harvests data to provide companies with empirical ground-truth weather data. Unlike any other solution, Understory deploys dense ground-based weather stations with technologically advanced sensors that detect and deliver 3,000+ measurements per second that are uploaded to their cloud, then delivered to their customers. The heart of Understory's solution is the weather station. The weather station features a revolutionary design that is much more responsive and reliable than current weather stations. The weather station behaves like a dedicated scientist taking real-time measurements out in the field for weather events including hail, wind, rain, temperature, barometric pressure, humidity, and derived measurements such as wind chill, heat index, sea level pressure, and wind gusts. The station combines sensors that detect and report weather data on a second-by-second basis. It is the only type weather station that delivers real-time data on the size of hailstone impacts. The ability to measure hail, wind, and rain without any moving station parts in real-time is what makes the weather station revolutionary. The temperature, pressure, and humidity instruments are standard technologies that have been integrated with onboard electronics for data management. How/why did you get started?
