Preparing the Storm Spotter

The April meeting will focus on “Preparing the Storm Spotter” as a follow-up to the official spotter training. The presentation will include protocol instruction for passing information during an active storm net along with recommended equipment beyond the vehicle-mounted transceiver and antenna. The program will also stress the importance of having an adequately prepared “go bag.”

Dr. Ken Dewey, WDØBIV

It’s that time of year again for our very own Ken Dewey, WDØBIV, to give his annual presentation. Ken will review the past 12 months of weather, especially our weird and wacky winter, as well as what we might expect with this spring’s severe weather season. Ken will also give an overview of the upcoming Central Plains Severe Weather Symposium and Family Weatherfest, which includes storm spotter training, scheduled for Saturday, April 6, at the Nebraska Innovation Campus.
