2024 Skywarn Storm Spotter Training

   Meteorologists from the National Weather Service in San Angelo conduct storm spotter training sessions each year to help prepare spotters for the upcoming severe weather season. The NWS conducts the training at the invitation of local emergency management officials who organize the training and who, in most cases are responsible for maintaining their local storm spotter network.

   All training sessions for 2024 will be conducted in person or online. The schedule below includes links to register for virtual training. If you cannot attend the session for your county, or you do not live in our service area, please try one of the "Open" sessions.

   If you're interested in being a spotter and are looking for more training materials see the Becoming A Spotter page . You can also find training materials on our SkyWarn Training Page
