JUST ANNOUNCED!
From
Tom Skilling: "We've set the date for our 31st annual Fermilab Tornado
& Severe Weather Seminar this spring. The program takes place at Noon
and at 6PM Saturday April 14--just a week shy of the 45th anniversary
of the infamous Oak Lawn/Lake Zurich/Belvidere tornado outbreak which
occurred on April 21, 1967 and resulted in 58 deaths and hundreds of
injuries here. It remains this area's largest and most deadly tornado
outbreak." Watch www.AskTom.org for details on speakers and topics when
they're released.
Tom Skilling
The programs are free of charge, require no tickets and feature seating on a first-come, first-served basis. I recommend arriving 30-45 minutes before the start of the seminar. This is the 32nd year for the Fermilab tornado seminars
1/23/12:
First announcement of seminar date.
Tom and Brian Smith began coordinating this annual seminar some years ago with support and assistance from Fermilab, from the National Weather Service, the Severe Storms Forecast Center, and many others--with the sole intent of informing and educating the public, and emergency volunteers and professionals.
This Severe Weather Seminar is open to the public and includes multimedia presentations from many forecasters, researchers, and noted personalities from the meteorological world.
"We suggest arriving early! Enter the Fermlab grounds via
the west entrance off Kirk Road.
Everyone with an interest in
understanding severe weather should come to this year's seminar and
take part in this wonderful learning experience!
