SKYWARN WEATHER SPOTTER

TRAINING ANNOUNCEMENT

The National Weather Service will train new or veteran spotters, including interested citizens, amateur radio, CERT, citizen corps, and law enforcement, fire, transportation and public works staff, on how to look for and report significant event-driven weather events. Training includes video demonstrations. Spotters are needed, particularly in the upper Skagit Valley region, as well as among those who have weather instrumentation, such as an anemometer.

If planning to attend this spotter training session, please RSVP so an appropriate number of handout materials can be on hand. Class capacity is 25, so sign up early. We look forward to seeing you at this or other Skywarn Spotter training sessions, and receiving your hazardous weather reports.
