In this course, we will discuss the fundamentals of storm spotting including definitions of severe weather, spotting techniques, and weather hazard safety rules. A short quiz will follow the course presentation. The content in this course is intended for educational and training purposes only.
	This presentation will provide some useful background for your training. However, reliable storm spotting can not be learned through a course alone. Actual observation of storm features in the field is the best learning method. Make every effort to find a NWS sponsored class in your local area when they are offered.
