Talia Penrose
Methodology & Standards Editor
Scoring methodology, climate-data sourcing, and editorial standards
Talia Penrose oversees how WhenToVisitParks documents its methodology and handles editorial standards across the trust pages. The role sets how the crowd-avoidance, weather-comfort and daylight weights are published, how each park is matched to the nearest NOAA climate-normals station, how data caveats are worded, and how corrections are processed. Methodology and explainer content is AI-assisted in research and drafting, then reviewed against the primary NPS and NOAA sources before publication.
