SKYWARN

Instead of taking a Scouting training class today, I took some non-BSA training I wanted to take from the National Weather Service.


I should be able to report storms now and where they are heading.  It was a really good class.  I plan on returning next year and hopefully being able to report bad weather and spot weather that could turn bad.  This will do nothing but help me when I am with my Scouts.

I have to say that the NWS's ability to incorporate "live media" into reporting issues with weather is a great example of accepting change for the good.  You can Tweet your reports to them.  Awesome.
