Description

This course is designed to give you a broad and macro perspective of our atmosphere and how active thunderstorms form and exist. If there were no clouds, rain, sun, snow, or air to breathe, life could not exist. This course is designed to show you the dynamic relationship between weather, climate, and the atmosphere that all work together top provide balance to our planet's ecosystem. I also touch on some thunderstorm safety measures used by our weather forecasters to keep you safe during a storm.

I cover the basic makeup of thunderstorms from single cells, multi cell, and the infamous super cell to the basic cloud formations that are present in the sky. The levels of the thunderstorm composition are discussed in detail providing you with a framework to do field labs on seeing the lighting or hearing the thunder for yourself wherever you may live.  Watching the Weather Channel or Accuweather is nice but understanding what goes into making the weather graphs makes this course invaluable for you.

The atmosphere was designed to sustain life at all levels but it must be taken care of and it must be respected. This course will give you the weather tools you need to explore our atmosphere in a safe and fun way.

Who this course is for:

  • Begining weather students and weather fans
