If you’re a SKYWARN spotter who is looking for training opportunities beyond what the National Weather Service provides, here’s a symposium to consider. It’s put on every year by the Meteorology Club at Ohio State University. This year’s agenda includes a special presentation on the Central Oklahoma tornado outbreak of 2013 (the one that killed well-known engineer and storm chaser Tim Samaras).

As you can see in the graphic above, the symposium takes place Friday, March 21, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the campus of The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio. I attended the past two symposiums and found them to be interesting and informative.
