How to join Skywarn™

 

Joining is easy. This is usually accomplished by attending one of our Skywarn™ training sessions and becoming a certified weather spotter. Just contact our Skywarn™ program leader John Goff at john.goff@noaa.gov for details. If you would like to set up a talk, here are the general requirements.

 

The spotter network is usually activated whenever there is a threat of severe or hazardous weather. Frequently, this preceded by the issuance of a Severe Thunderstorm Watch, Tornado Watch, Flood Watch or some other type of hazardous weather watch.

 

Skywarn™ reports can be relayed from your location to the National Weather Service via volunteer ham radio operators using packet radio or by calling our toll free Skywarn™ weather spotter telephone number. The number will be provided when you join!
