Event Details

The National Weather Service (NWS) has protected American lives and properties for over a century. The timely provision of reliable weather, water, climate, and environmental information has supported the Nation's social and economic development. NWS offices in communities across the United States and its territories, supported by regional and national centers, provide the authoritative information Americans need, including national, regional, state, tribal, and local authorities, to plan, prepare, mitigate, and respond to natural and human-caused events. NWS provides weather, water, and climate forecasts and warnings for the United States, its territories, adjacent waters, and ocean areas to protect life and property and enhance the national economy. These services include Forecasts and Observations, Warnings, Impact-based Decision Support Services, and Education to build a Weather-Ready Nation. The ultimate goal is to have a society prepared for and respond to weather, water, and climate events.
 
The tours will be conducted by a meteorologist who will go through the basics of how the National Weather Service operates and how forecasts are compiled and disseminated to the public. Participants will then be able to tour the operations area where current forecasting is taking place. Photography is permitted. The tour should last approximately one hour. 
 
When you arrive, you may park anywhere in the parking lot. Please enter through the main door facing the road, not the side door facing the parking lot. Ring the white doorbell button on the right wall inside the vestibule, and someone will let you in.
