Do you have an interest in storms, weather, and helping your community?
Get trained as a storm spotter! Spotters are volunteers trained to recognize and report real-time information that help to inform meteorologists and keep communities safe during severe weather.
What to know:
– Both in-person and online training sessions will be available.
– Training sessions will be about 2 hours long each.
-The first hour will cover safety aspects for spotters/general public while the second hour will cover the essentials of what you need to know to report severe weather to your local National Weather Service (NWS).
– Each session will cover the same information, so you only need to attend one.
– Training is open to the public and completely free.
– There is no pre-registration required for in-person training- just show up!
– For those that cannot attend any of the live training sessions, NWS will also record the training and share that in mid-May.
