Along with Executive Producer Bill Schultz from Home Plate Entertainment and the team at Splash Entertainment, I'm producing 40 x 22 minute episodes of this great new CGI series. The main character is 8-year-old Lily Hunter, a weather detective who shares her investigations with her family, including dad Al Hunter, voiced by Roker. The series will help further young viewers’ interest and knowledge of Earth science and meteorology, both key building blocks of climate education.
