Skywarn Basics I Class, Saturday, March 3, 11 AM – 2:30 PM

[Skywarn at UMCP]

Dear Skywarners:

Another year has passed, and our annual Basics I Skywarn class is fast
approaching! If you have not taken Basics I (or it’s been a while),
then you should definitely sign up. As always, the class is FREE,
runs about 2.5 hours, and is very visually oriented – and it will once
again include a free pizza/soda lunch courtesy of Pepsi Co! As
Skywarn grads, you are also our best advertisement so we would really
appreciate it if you could pass along this announcement to any of your
friends, family, or colleagues who might be interested in taking the
class.

In addition, please note that several presentations from previous
classes are posted online at http://www.atmos.umd.edu/~gcm/skywarn/skywarn.
However, the best place to find the most recent class presentations is
at the NWS website http://www.erh.noaa.gov/lwx/skywarn/presentations/.
We also usually offer an advanced class in the fall depending upon
availability of an instructor. Thanks again for helping to spread the
word, and you are always invited back for a refresher as the material
(and sometimes the instructor) is constantly changing!

I will send out a reminder email as the class date approaches, and if
you have any questions regarding the class, please don't hesitate to
contact the Stefan, the MetoGrads Skywarn Coordinator at
cece...@atmos.umd.edu.

Best Wishes,

Kristin Cummings
