Our local Skywarn group met at a training facility to view the
presentation.  The links are provided for your review.

It is good to see the National Weather Service offices provide this
training designed to keep SPOTTERS safe during already challenging times.

We are also looking forward to a visit from the German Skywarn team this
spring.  For more information about their work, visit http://www.skywarn.de

Be safe with Skywarn
