One of the main activities of W9PVR is SKYWARN/storm spotting. SKYWARN is a nationwide network of trained weather spotters who assist the National Weather Service by reporting severe weather conditions in real time. As amateur radio operators, our club members play a crucial role in relaying reports of severe storms, tornadoes, flooding, and other hazardous weather events, helping to provide timely warnings that can save lives. We work closely with local emergency management and the National Weather Service to ensure that critical weather information is communicated effectively. To learn more about SKYWARN and how you can get involved, visit the NWS SKYWARN page.
