Platte County Storm Spotter Training Session

National Weather Service meteorologists, in collaboration with local emergency management officials, will offer several in-person severe storm spotter training courses in the spring of 2026 to build your skills in spotting and reporting severe weather! These training sessions are free and open to the public, and all ages are welcome (but age 10 and up will probably get the most out of it)! These sessions will bring a greater understanding of severe storm features, safety around severe storms, how to report important weather information, and will do it all through an exciting combination of videos, photos, and discussion!
