Educational Goals - Damaging Wind Groups

Conduct educational - training seminars locally and with staff members at WFOs across the midwest as a means of sharing reseach findings from the Cooperative.

Work with professors-students from Saint Louis University Meteorology Department on COMET applied research activities. Share observations - insights in the areas of pre-convective / non-going convective environments; storm-reflectivity / Doppler radar structures as viewed from the WSR-88D Doppler radar.

Participate at various conferences, regional workshops - symposiums to share results from the project.

Publish conference papers and journal articles as a means to document research results.
