Severe Weather Spotter Class

The National Weather Service office in Cheyenne, WY, in cooperation with Region 22 Emergency Management, presents the annual Severe Weather Spotter Class. Come learn from an NWS Meteorologist how to identify severe thunderstorms and tornadoes, and how to relay those reports to the NWS office in Cheyenne. Storm Spotters are the "ground truth" confirmation that the NWS and Emergency Management relies upon when making the decision whether or not to issue a severe thunderstorm or a tornado warning. The class is FREE and open to the public. You do not have to be an official spotter in order to take the class. Everyone in attendance will receive a certificate. For more information, please contact Tim Newman, Region 22 Emergency Management Director at: 308-436-6689 or tnewman@scottsbluff.org
