UW-W Presents Free "Severe Weather 101" Workshops

Did you know that as of 2024, Wisconsin has had a tornado touch down in every month of the year? And severe weather can cost communities thousands of dollars in damage. Join expert storm chasers for a series of presentations to understand the weather forecast process and how to prepare for the upcoming severe weather season in order to protect yourself and your property.

All presentations are free. Join us on any or all dates. Registration is strongly encouraged but not required. Participants under 18 must be accompanied by a custodial guardian.
