Judge entered broadcasting when he was 12 years old, and when he was a senior in high school, he had his own radio show.

While in college, Judge worked in Boston (Massachusetts) radio as a DJ, and also worked as a helicopter traffic reporter. Judge spent eight years hosting a radio morning show on New Hampshire's Seacoast 102 WZEA-FM (where he won the New Hampshire Association of Broadcasters' "Air Personality of the Year" award in 1993) and later on Arrow 105.3 FM. After that, Judge returned to college to study weather forecasting and meteorology.

The book also features contributions from over 15 of New England's well-known television meteorologists, a chapter written by the staff of the Mount Washington Observatory, and hundreds of pictures. The book is reported to have sold over 5,000 copies in its first month alone.
