Why were Level 1 and Level 2 training combined?
There is no longer a need for both Level 1 and Level 2 training. The SKYWARN class now incorporates both beginning and the necessary advanced information into one training session! Jim Kramper, Warning Coordination Meteorologist with the St. Louis NWS office is now conducting our classes!. Jim has put together a 3 hr. presentation which covers all the important aspects of SKYWARN spotting. He includes both the basic and more advanced information in his presentation, thus eliminating the need for two classes!
