North Winds Weather

Our History

Nor’easter Weather Consulting stemmed from the retirement of well-known New England forecaster, Tony Vazzano. North Winds Weather was the premier forecasting source for ski areas for over 40 years before Tony’s retirement after the 2017-2018 winter.

Mallory Brooke

Currently only one of four Certified Consulting Meteorologists in northern New England, Mallory Brooke graduated from the world renowned meteorology program at the Pennsylvania State University in 2008. Beginning her career in broadcasting, she first lived in Virginia from 2008-2011, and obtained her Certified Broadcast Meteorologist Seal from the American Meteorological Society in 2010. Mallory moved to Maine in 2011, and immediately took ownership of the station’s ski report. She began cultivating relationships with ski area managers, which ultimately led to meeting Tony Vazzano through Bob Hoyt of King Pine Ski Area in 2014.

Mallory’s work with Tony and precise winter weather forecasting skills landed her the role of Official Meteorologist for the Audi FIS World Cup at Killington in 2016, and each year thereafter. Nor’easter Weather Consulting was launched in 2017 as Mallory left the broadcast industry full-time. Nor’easter Weather Consulting is dedicated to providing precise forecasts to weather dependent industries and events, with an emphasis on forecast consistency and client communication. 

She remains a freelancer in the Portland, ME market and continues to be an advocate for outdoor recreation by producing summer and winter series of the “Outside Edge” for WCSH, News Center Maine. Mallory received the prestigious Certified Consulting Meteorologist Seal from the AMS in October 2020 and currently serves on the Board of Certified Consulting Meteorologists. In addition, she graduated with a Master of Business Administration with a concentration in Business Analytics from the University of Maine in May 2022.
