On July 14, I made a trip to Orange Elementary School to speak with a very bright group of students participating in a summer enrichment program called Summer Scholars. We had a very lively discussion about how a weather forecast is created and why meteorology is such an important thing. The students posed lots of questions about weather instruments, different types of storms and the daily duties of a meteorologist. We all took a big group photo at the end that aired on CBS19 News at 5!
