After recently leaving my job, I decided to see if there are any developer roles in meteorology? I know about government organizations like NOAA but it's my understanding that they seek professionals with meteorology degrees. Are there any public or private sector roles that deal with forecasting, modeling, or otherwise? I'm less concerned about pay than I am about finding meaningful work for a weather nerd.
There are countless tutorials online and many books as well but it's overwhelming to know which standard to pick. I'm not looking for an authoritative source but rather a good introduction for someone with prior low-level development experience.
