I am willing to attempt to get a National Weather Service Skywarn Basics 1  
class started for the Frederick, MD area.  Anyone, ham or not, please  
advise me of name and contact information (e-mail address is preferred).   There 

are no guarantees, but I will make the attempt if I get a  sufficient 
number of participants.  A reminder... being a radio amateur is  NOT a 
requirement to participate in Skywarn as weather reports can be sent to  the 
Weather 

Service Forecast Office in Sterling, VA via telephone (the same  place the 
amateur radio reports are sent... except usually by radio). Skywarn is  not 
limited to severe thunder storms and tornados... severe winter weather  
reports are important as well, especially icing conditions.


The list below is from the Skywarn web site for your convenience.
