Forecasting Activity

The forecast activity is designed to give students the experience of making a weather forecast. They can use the spreadsheet to make the forecast from the NWS website, then verify the forecast the next day. The document below has many useful weather links and resources. If you have questions about the activity or would like it customized for your area (including the weather briefing) please don't hesitate to contact meteorologist Aaron Treadway.

Ask-A-Meteorologist Hangouts for Schools

What is it?

Ask-a-Meteorologist is a way to easily allow your students to learn about the weather through face-to-face interaction with NWS meteorologists! Utilizing Google Hangouts allows multiple classrooms to participate at the same time without the hassles of travel and set-up.

How Does It Work?

All your classroom needs to participate is an internet connection and a webcam with a microphone. Google Hangouts is a free video chat interface that work with any web browser. We send a link to the Ask-a-Meteorologist session via email and all you have to do is click on the link! From there we will cycle through the classroom(s) allowing students to ask questions to the various meteorologists participating. 

How Do I Sign Up?

Send an email containing your name, school, class size/grade and preferred date to Meteorologist Aaron Treadway!

Who Will Be Participating?

Meteorologists from the National Weather Service (NWS) office in New Braunfels, TX. We can accommodate up to five classrooms on the call from across South Central Texas. We may also have some special guests on the call who are local TV meteorologists, emergency managers, and other weather partners!
