The National Weather Service in St. Louis, in coordination with partners across the region, are offering storm spotter classes at several locations to prepare for severe weather season. If you would like to assist your local community by becoming a volunteer storm spotter and reporting severe weather to the National Weather Service, or if you simply want to learn more about severe weather, consider attending one of our classes! Classes are normally held in the evening and last approximately 2 hours.

Classes are free and for all ages (even small children)! No pre-registration is required for in-person classes.
