Antonio Riggi

Antonio Riggi has been with WeatherBell since December 2013 and specializes in obtaining, processing, visualizing, and rendering large meteorological datasets, including maps and data products.

Mr. Riggi's interest in meteorology goes back to the many snowstorms he experienced growing up in northern New Jersey. His desire to learn more about meteorology led him to pursue a degree and ultimately a career in meteorology.

Antonio earned his Bachelor of Science degree in 2010 from Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey and Master of Science degree from Florida State University in 2013. In his graduate work, he investigated transport and dispersion of atmospheric tracer gases using high-resolution modeling ensembles, also employing variational data assimilation, through which he gained extensive knowledge of the inner workings of numerical weather models.
