Weather with Enthusiasm is a podcast about weather, atmospheric extremes, and climate (including little ice age) created by Simcha Lefton, a weather enthusiast. Although at times Simcha is refered to as a . meteorologist, he doesn't yet have a degree in atmospheric science.

During the month of Iyyar (Jewish Month from mid-April through mid-May in 2026) documentaries and/or other interesting weather phenomena are released daily at 3pm Sunday - Friday and 10pm on Saturday.

Should you choose to become a member this material (the next weeks episodes) will be made available to you immediately.



The show features passionate weather analysis, with a special focus on the Midwest, while also exploring major weather and climate events from around the world. Topics include storms, heatwaves, Arctic heat, climate change, the Dust Bowl, historical weather extremes, and occasional imaginative retellings of biblical weather events as if covered by a modern weather service.
For the first five years, the podcast was entirely hosted and delivered by Simcha Lefton, with no AI content. Beginning in April 2026, the feed expanded to include some AI-generated episodes and segments, including daily Chicago zmanim and sunrise/sunset times, hyperlocal forecast episodes with detailed weather explanations, and documentary-style episodes.
All AI content is clearly recognizable and part of the same broader project: making weather information and atmospheric storytelling more engaging, accessible, and wide-ranging.
There is also a focus on storm chasing including most likely location of triple-point (as of April 2026).
Whether you’re here for Midwest weather, Arctic anomalies, historical climate perspective, or creative weather storytelling, Weather with Enthusiasm brings it all together in one feed.
