ATTENTION 4th, 5th, and 6th GRADERS!

With all of us learning and working from home, the National Hurricane Center is happy to announce that they will be hosting a series of #HurricanesAtHome webinars for 4th, 5th, and 6th graders who live in states and territories along the U.S. Gulf and Atlantic coasts over the next several weeks! The webinars will focus on the job of a meteorologist, the weather hazards that come with hurricanes, and how meteorologists get you the weather information you need before a storm.
