Weather Prediction 101, is a course where you will learn everything about weather prediction and meteorology from scratch. No prior experience required.
I base this course on 6 years of experience, and I will teach everything that I've got. You will learn many things about the atmosphere and how everything works. Understand how to get the forecast for yourself the professional way - the same way pilots, dispatchers, and sailors use every day, all around the world.
You will first learn basic weather principles, then you will move on to the real deal.
What are the different types of weather charts and reports, how to obtain them legally and free of charge, and how to read, decode, and understand them.
You will also learn how to access high definition live satellite infrared imagery, legally and free of charge.
What are the different pressure systems and how to use them in our daily life.
What is ISA and what are its standards.
How to Identify the different types of clouds.
How many stages does a thunderstorm cell go through and what are they.
I assume no previous experience in meteorology, and I will start from the very beginning. So let's get started!
Who this course is for:
- This course is intended for anyone interested in weather prediction.
- This course is for anyone who does not want to rely on TV and want to forecast weather professionally.
