Barry ZeVan Says This Should be the Last of the Subzero Temps!
Officially, he’s retired, but you’d never know it. Not only is he busy with volunteer work and projects across the country—he still keeps a keen eye on the weather.
I was among those grumbling about the cold at a recent meeting.
“Oh, this is the last of it,” he assured us.
“Well--we’ll see,” I said—forgetting who I was talking to.
“No, really, it is,” he said. “I’ve been watching the satellite pictures, and there’s a big shift in the upper air pattern; the Arctic air is moving off, and Pacific air—"
“Oh--duh--I forgot!” I said. “Barry ZeVan, the Weatherman! Do you mind if I quote you?”
Graciously, he said that I could.
Barry is an RSVP volunteer, serving on the board of our partner organization, MnCAAN, the Minnesota Creative Arts and Aging Network, which works to expand opportunities for older adults to express themselves through the arts.

He does a weekly video on the StarTribune website, called--A Senior Moment. (Did I mention he has a great sense of humor?)
