2008 1st Place Winner
With cold air and snowflakes in the forecast, this past Saturday, all 5 members of Storm Team attended a Winter Weather Forecasting seminar at the National Weather Service office in Grand Rapids. It was a great sharing of information aimed at helping to make sure winter weather forecasts and emergency information gets passed along to the public.
While most people aren’t really thinking ahead toward Spring and the beginning of Severe Thunderstorm Season, local NWS officials also wanted to get the word out to all 4th and 5th graders in Michigan to get artistic and create a design for the annual Severe Weather Awareness Poster Contest! The deadline for posters is February 1, 2009. Winners will receive a Savings Bond. For more information, head to www.mcswa.org
