SKYWARN™ CLASSES

classes offered (click here)
June 26, 2008
We have completed our latest set of Skywarn™ classes for 2007-08. No classes
will be offered during the summer months due to staffing considerations and
active
summertime
weather. However, our 2008-09 class schedule is already beginning to be developed.
Check back here later this summer and fall for the 2008-09 class schedule.
If you would like to host a class, see the paragraph below.
Due to security concerns following
9-11, Skywarn™ Basics 1 classes will not be offered at the NWS Sterling facility.
Therefore, NWS Sterling Office is looking for organizations to host Skywarn™
training. We need a free site that can accommodate up to at least
40 people and have the ability for audio visual equipment. We will
open the training class up to the public and will help advertise the class.
We need at least 20 people registered to hold the class, but ideally would
like to have over 30. If you can help with such arrangements, please
e-mail: Nikole.winstead.listemaa@noaa.gov

People are required to pre-register for all classes. This
is necessary to control class size and provide the proper amount of handouts.
Classes have a limited amount of space. If you register for a class and
can not make it, please notify us so we can make your spot available to
someone else. Upcoming classes are announced on this page and on NOAA Weather
Radio. All training classes and Skywarn™ membership are free. Registration
procedures are listed below.
