Severe storm spotters are a VITAL part of the warning process! Spotters provide critical, potentially live saving information to their communities and surrounding locations and to NWS forecasters who are using the reports to help issue warnings and keep the public updated during severe weather events.
Anyone with an interest is welcome to attend a spotter class. Children (under the age of 18) are welcome to attend the class, however, they will not be considered official spotters. There is no cost for this training, just 2 1/2 hours of your time for the class.
The spotter training class is designed for people new to severe storm spotting, as well as those that need refresher training. The training is comprised of all of the information that spotters need to be effective and stay safe.
Vermilionweather.com has several pages designed to keep our visitors informed to impending severe weather.
*Storm Center
*Spotters Page
*Local Advisories
*Forecast Page
*Plus a visible Alert bar across the top of every page along with numerous radars to monitor the severe weather.
