Jim Roemer

Jim Roemer owns the site www.bestweatherinc.com offering free (and subscription based) weather related blogs for commodity traders, institutional hedgers, farmers and small investors.

He is a featured guest on Bloomberg TV/radio, a contributor to Seeking Alpha and is co-founder of Climate Predict, LLC, the most detailed, long- range global weather forecast model in the commodity industry. He was one of the first meteorologists to become registered as a Commodity Trading Advisor.
