Kerr County and the National Weather Service are teaming up to present a basic Skywarn training event on Thursday, February 15 from 6-8 p.m. at the Hill Country Youth Event Center, 3785 TX27 in Kerrville. The event is open to the public, and walk-ins are welcome.
Skywarn is a volunteer-based spotter program that connects 350,000-400,000 trained individuals nationwide who assist their respective communities regarding severe weather reports. Skywarn members provide the National Weather Service with timely, accurate reports in real time. The volunteer roster includes law enforcement officers, firefighters, dispatchers, EMS workers, public utility workers, and numerous private citizens.
During training, those interested will learn about: the basics of thunderstorm development, fundamentals of storm structure, how to identify potentially severe weather features, how to report accurately and quickly, and basic severe weather safety.
For more information on this training event, call (830) 315-2430.
