The class covers how to identify hazardous weather and report it to the National Weather Service, which uses these reports to alert the city and its residents to dangerous conditions.
The free interactive discussion allows attendees to hear directly from those trained to monitor, observe, and assess the hazards of severe weather, and to understand the basics of thunderstorm development, storm structures, and key features to look for and where to find them. All ages are welcome to attend, but a guardian is encouraged to accompany any minors.
The class will last approximately two hours, and no registration is required. American Sign Language interpretation will be available through a partnership with the City of St. Louis Office on the Disabled.
Additional sessions are scheduled throughout the St. Louis area. Dates and times are listed at weather.gov/stlouis/spottertalks.
