@wxman1 and @FDWxMan - do meteorologists ever speak to schools? I'm organizing a STEAM night for our elementary's PTA and need a keynote speaker who can engage K - 5. You guys were the first I thought of!

It varies. I know some that do school talks every week and haves a whole program around it and others that never do. Bret can hook you up with something good over there.

Have a buddy that works for the state and they had a conference about winter weather. He said they had Metinka Slater and Amber Alexander for it and Amber was in the front asking a lot of questions. Metinka just kinda of showed up sat in the back and never said anything. WHO just gained a new viewer.

Not sure why anyone would watch KCCI. Their meteorology group sucks.

Is this your way of asking if you will be able to see over it? ;)

I think I remember seeing that Amber Alexander was in an Ames elementary school not long ago.

You guys are fantastic. I'll send Amber an email - that's great. It would be awesome to have an engaging keynote speaker!
