No.. i’m not in Africa.. but I contributed to something cool there today. Today IBM and our subsidiary  The Weather Company announced that we are working with TAHMO.org to install more than 330 high accuracy weather stations in sub-saharan Africa.  The weather stations will flow through our Weather Underground crowd sourced weather platform into TWC’s worldwide weather tracking and prediction platform. Our Watson IoT platform can then  put that data to use  to help farmers, crop insurers , emergence  planners and entrepreneurs in the  region. I’m really excited to be part of this partnership and cant wait to help put these stations on line. Thanks to all the folks that made this possible !

nite all, nite sam
