The CoCoRaHS WxTalk Webinar Bi-Monthly Series



In December 2011 CoCoRaHS kicked off a new and exciting monthly Webinar series called CoCoRaHS WxTalk (wx is shorthand for weather). CoCoRaHS WxTalk consists of a series of monthly one-hour interactive Webinars featuring engaging experts in the fields of atmospheric science, climatology and other pertinent disciplines. These easy to follow presentations are live and approximately sixty minutes long. The audience is given the chance to submit questions which the experts answer live on the air.



Topics have included: Snow, Satellites, Hurricanes, Lightning, Clouds, Tornadoes, Flash Floods, Fire Weather, Weather History, Radar and How to become a Meteorologist, just to name a few.



There are many exciting Webinars on the agenda in the months ahead, so please tell your friends to join us. All WxTalk Webinars are free and most are recorded for later viewing.



*Although headphones are a good way of listening to the Webinars, only a set of speakers is required to hear the Webinar. The audience will be muted so there is no need for a microphone. All incoming correspondence during the Webinar should be in typed form.
