Skywarn Spotter Training Program |
More info (NWS PTC) |
| |
A different approach to conducting the spotter program will be utilized during the coming years. In an effort to be more efficient with resources, classes will be offered
during the months of January and February, and presented to multiple counties. Each year, a different county within the group will host a class, and rotate to the next county the following
year. Coordination should be done between the Emergency Management Agencies (EMA)
of the grouped counties to select a date and location for the class. Those individuals interested in attending a class should contact the EMA office of their respective
county. Spotter Classes will be presented ONLY during the months of January and February, and NO dates have been selected as of January 1, 2001.
If you plan to attend a training class, please call the contact person to ensure space and seating...or contact Barry Gooden, at
the National Weather Service (770) 486-1133.
Also, for the Advance SkyWarn classes, the attendee should have taken the Basic/Intermediate class at least one year prior. |
