Tornadoes, cyclones, tsunamis…Weather can be deadly—especially when it strikes without warning. Millions of Americans could soon find themselves at the mercy of violent weather if the public data behind lifesaving storm alerts gets privatized for personal gain. In his first Audible Original, New York Times best-selling author and journalist Michael Lewis delivers hard-hitting research on not-so-random weather data—and how Washington plans to release it. He also digs deep into the lives of two scientists who revolutionized climate predictions, bringing warning systems to previously unimaginable levels of accuracy. One is Kathy Sullivan, a gifted scientist among the first women in space; the other, D.J. Patil, is a trickster-turned-mathematician and a political adviser. Most urgently, Lewis’s narrative reveals the potential cost of putting a price tag on information that could save lives. Please note The Fifth Risk includes the entirety of The Coming Storm.

About the Author and Performer

A best-selling and critically acclaimed author, Michael Lewis is also the narrator of his Audible Originals for Audible Studios. Lewis is renowned for disrupting industries and exposing systemic injustices by probing the lives of individual people in his previous works. Want the lowdown on the financial system? Understand the industry through the moves of one shark finessing it in Lewis’s nonfiction classic The Big Short. Yearn to learn how baseball really works? Feast your ears on Moneyball, and listen to the men who uncovered the hidden numbers game within the game. Tough issues of race and class become relatable in The Blind Side as Lewis tells the true story of a black high school student living with an evangelical family. In The Coming Storm, the first one of four Audible originals to come from Lewis, he focuses his unique brand of nuanced reportage on the implications of state-of-the-art weather data.

Could not stop listening to this once started. Fascinating how little we know and understand about our government and society. This narrative delivers complicated information in an easy to understand format. Current, and gives background to many of the trends we are seeing in our society. Totally fascinating and demonstrates how important data is to the advancement and improvement in our society. Or actually, how letting smart people with the right motives and incentives to have access to data can help our world and society. I hope everyone listens to The Coming Storm and rather than be complacent, is moved to action in some way to reverse the trends to suppress information or use it for economic gain.

Disturbing & Compelling

I didn't think I could be still be appalled, I was mistaken! Suppressing free NOAA weather info so u can sell it for huge profits!

Michael Lewis's reportage avoids Mueller and the whole collusion business. Stormy isn't even mentioned, Kelly Ann and Don, Jr don't even merit a footnote. What Lewis documents is rapacious greed that's opened like a sinkhole since the President's people took over the National Weather Service.

powerful journalism

Too much of it is about how having the CEO of a service dedicated to serving paid forecasts the head of the government department that generates forecasts is a really bad idea. We may end up less safe if he manages to make sufficient changes.

I did find the other parts interesting though, about chaos theory and big data.

Great story with excellent narration.

I'm a data scientist and I like Michael Lewis's books. However, this one quickly turns into a political campaign.

Propaganda

a great look at the importance of data and science versus the negative impact that greed and politics can have upon public safety.
