Weather Wizards: Adventures in Meteorology @ Bonnie W. Noble Center
Apr 18 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm

Join us on the third Thursday of each month at the Noble Center to explore the science of Meteorology!

How can science help us to understand the weather? What can we learn from studying the processes that occur in the Earth’s atmosphere? In this class, we will discover some of the amazing things that happen “behind the scenes” to create the weather we experience in our daily lives and use our imaginations to create projects inspired by each month’s topic.

January 18th:  Water and Ice

February 15th: Atmosphere

March 21st: Weather Forecasting

April 18th: Lightning and Storms
