What is eSpotter?

eSpotter is a system to facilitate the submission of spotter reports online. The system is being developed to enhance and increase timely and accurate online spotter reporting and communications between spotters and the National Weather Service. The use of the system is currently available for trained spotters and emergency managers.

How can I become an eSpotter?

First, you must attend a spotter training class. For the latest NWS Huntsville spotter training schedule, check our SKYWARN Information page. If you are already a trained spotter, you do not have to attend a new class. To register for eSpotter, visit the eSpotter website at http://espotter.weather.gov.
