Want to help the National Weather Service?
Weather Spotter Training coming up |
December 10, 2015 |
by Michael Meier
Public Information Officer
Boundary County, Idaho
The National Weather Service in Spokane is
seeking volunteers who would like to become
official Weather Spotters. For those interested,
a class is coming up soon in Boundary County.
Weather spotters are the “eyes and ears” of the
NWS and provide valuable weather reports which
cannot be replaced. The training is free to the
public, and prior experience is not necessary.
Spotter reports, coupled with radar, satellite,
and other data, have enabled the NWS to issue
more timely and accurate warnings and statements
for types of hazardous weather.
The National Weather Service Spotter Training
Class will be held
December 15, 2015, from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.
at the South Boundary Fire Station on 20
Stagecoach Road in Naples.
For more information, please contact: Andrew
Brown, NWS Spokane, at 509-244-0110 x223, or by
e-mail at Andrew.Brown@noaa.gov
