Gentlemen, As per Msgr: Subject: Please spread through email network. I have had two reports in the last week, of people going door-to-door claiming that they're collecting money for St. John's. Please advise anyone you know that this is not authorized. It is a scam. Please help get the word out. Thanks, Msgr.

Weather Spotter FREE Training The National Weather Service (NWS), a part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), relies on volunteer spotters to collect and provide critical information about localized inclement conditions, including hail size, tornadoes, downed trees, flooding, rain amounts and snowfall depths. Spotters learn reporting skills via a 2-hour Webinar, provided by their local field office, at no charge. The field office that serves our area is PHI (Philadelphia / Mount Holly). Those who complete the Webinar are assigned a unique spotter number, and become part of the SKYWARN? volunteer program that includes 350,000 and 400,000 trained severe weather spotters throughout the USA. These volunteers help keep their local communities safe by providing timely and accurate reports of severe weather to the National Weather Service. You only need to attend one Webinar to become a spotter. Two opportunities for attending a live Webinar session are: Saturday (TODAY!) April 18, Noon-2PM EDT or Tuesday April 21, 6PM-8PM EDT If you can't make one of the times listed above, you are welcome to view the recorded presentation! Further information, including how to register for a live class session, or to get the link for the recorded presentation, is available at https://www.weather.gov/phi/classes Who is eligible and how do I get started? NWS encourages those who are age 18+ and have an interest in weather and public service to consider joining the SKYWARN? program. Being in the program does not mean that you are required to report all weather events, you can do this as much or as little as you like, on an ad hoc basis. Volunteers may receive alerts to know when their services will be needed. These alerts also can help keep you informed about changing conditions. Reporting typically occurs via the Internet or phone, but since these may not be functional in severe conditions, licensed Amateur Radio Operators (Hams) are strongly encouraged to become spotters. It's also helpful (but not necessary) to have a weather radio. The training session provides the latest information about how severe weather conditions develop and what constitutes a reportable observation. You'll learn: Basics of thunderstorm development Fundamentals of storm structure Identifying potential severe weather features Information to report How to report information Basic severe weather safety In an average year, the United States experiences more than 10,000 severe thunderstorms, 5,000 floods and more than 1,000 tornadoes! Since the program started in the 1970s, the information provided by SKYWARN? spotters, coupled with Doppler radar technology, improved satellite and other data, has enabled NWS to issue more timely and accurate warnings. SKYWARN? storm spotters form the nation's first line of defense against severe weather. From personal experience, I know that serving as a spotter gives one a better sense of awareness of weather's effects on the local community, and it is rewarding to know that your efforts? may have given your family and neighbors the precious gift of time -- minutes that can even help save lives. I hope you will take the Webinar and become a spotter! Let me know if you have any questions! Rebecca Mercuri, K3RPM.
