Virtual Weather Spotter Training sessions are being offered across the Great Lakes. Visit the Virtual Spotter Training Registration Page for dates and times.
Online, self-paced training can be obtained by taking an online spotter course through the MetEd program.

You can also learn more about meteorology and our atmosphere at JetStream - An Online School for Weather.
Once you have completed training (in-person or online), contact the Emergency Management office in your city/county to find out what you can do to become involved with their spotter program.
