Dr. Bunkers founded Northern Plains Weather Services, LLC, in 2017, and has over 30 years of weather analysis and forecasting experience. He grew up on a dairy farm in eastern South Dakota, and has a passion for meteorology, solving problems, and helping others.

As of 24 September 2023, he was one of 250 active CCMs in the United States. According to the AMS,

“The CCM program is a service for the general public by the AMS. The Society has established high standards of technical competence, character, and experience for certified consultants who provide meteorological advice to the public.“
