Weather Permitting investigates the phenomena of weather, from tornadoes in trailer parks to drifting ice shelves in the Antarctic. The project focuses on the culture and technologies of communication that are used to capture and transmit weather events.

Conducted by Kathryn Yusoff and Jennifer Gabrys, two researchers with experience in geography, communications and landscape art, Weather Permitting considers the energy and excesses of modern-day climates gone awry.

Weather Permitting consists of six research areas, listed on this page; and fieldwork in sites ranging from the Arctic to the Antarctic; and from Iceland to the Mojave Desert in California.
