As noted in recent meetings, Steven Martinaitis and Stanley Christmas, our current president and treasurer, announced they will not be accepting nominations and election in May. If you are interested in supporting the chapter as an elected officer, or know someone who might be interested, please let us know. We actively meet about nine months a year, September to May. All members, please plan to attend this meeting for chapter officer nominations and elections, as well as for other chapter business.

Please set a reminder for Tuesday May 14th at 12PM Central (Noon) to join our monthly chapter meeting at the Fort Worth WFO/RFC (map) . Don't miss this one!  Please, plan to arrive after 11:45 AM. See rules below. We will also have the meeting online via Zoom (details below).The WFO address is 3401 Northern Cross Blvd., Fort Worth, TX 76137

  Our guest speaker is Dr. Lisa Bucci, Hurricane Specialist at the National Hurricane Center. Dr. Bucci will speak about "From space, aircraft, land, and sea to an NHC forecast"

Because it is an active forecast office, there are ground rules that we will apply and adhere to. 

• First is the time to arrive. We will be allowed into the building 15 minutes prior to the meeting. We will not have access to the building and conference room before then. 
• Our movement will be confined to the entrance area, the conference room, and the hallway to the left that leads to the bathrooms. 
• We will not go into the operational areas. 
• Once the meeting concludes, we will depart the building in a timely fashion in order to not disrupt operations and allow the conference room to be available for other meetings.
