Happy National Weatherperson’s Day! From keeping up with the latest meteorological research and tools, supporting decision makers during severe weather, keeping communities safe 24 x 7 x 365 with impact-based forecasting—and everything in between—we want to thank you.
Hi, #AMS2025! We’re having such a fun and fascinating time connecting with you all! Learn more about our #MetEd education & training resources and our 3D-Printed Automatic Weather Stations (#3DPAWS) at the @UCAR_News Science Showcase (Booth 323) today at 5 pm CST.
@ametsoc
We’re excited for a great week at #AMS2025! Do you want to learn how we advance education, training, and capacity building in weather? Want to discuss your ideas or collaboration opportunities with us? See us at the @UCAR_News booth and discover more at our sessions!
We’re thrilled to share that the director for @UCAR_News Education & Training Center and COMET, Dr. Elizabeth Mulvihill, has been named a 2025 @ametsoc Fellow! This recognition highlights Liz's exceptional contributions to the atmospheric and related sciences over many years.
Do you help coastal communities prepare and respond to potential flooding? Check out our MetEd lesson, “Preparing for Coastal Flooding with the @NOAA Monthly High Tide Flooding Outlook."
