Become a storm spotter
Additional Information
To become a Skywarn Spotter for the NWS Phoenix office requires attending a free one-hour training class. Their office conducts Spotter classes at locations throughout their forecast area. Typically, this occurs during the March through May (and sometimes June) time frame.
The classes teach hams and others how to properly identify and report significant weather phenomena, contributing to public safety.
You will learn about how thunderstorms work, how to identify cloud features associated with microbursts and tornadoes, and how your reports tie in to warnings and advisories issued by the National Weather Service (NWS).
In addition, you will learn about all of the services available from the NWS.
Adult SKYWARN volunteers are community minded individuals who understand that they play a role in public safety by providing storm information to the National Weather Service.
