Takeaways from the training:

Jessica “The training was amazing. Don’t measure hail until it stops falling! lol”

Nathan “Lots of information. Mark Fox was informative and very funny.”

If you missed the Collin County event, the National Weather Service in Ft. Worth will be conducting spotter training sessions across North Texas through the end of March. For details: or

A big thank you to everyone involved in the organization of this great event!
