Storm Chaser Question

#1 Postby hurricanejustin » Thu May 03, 2012 7:31 am

Hi Guys,
I'm a fifth grade teacher and my class is doing a career project. One of my students is interested in storm chasing and would love to email a few of his questions about it to someone who has experience doing it. Anyone out there willing to help him out or point me in the right direction? Thanks!

You guys are amazing. Thanks so much Mark for replying in such detail to my student. He was completely beside himself this morning when he came in and told me he had gotten your response. This kid's a future meteorologist/storm chaser without a doubt. I'm sure if anyone else is willing, he would love to contact another storm chaser.

I am not a meteorologist but am only 1 class and 1 test away from having my Bachelor's Degree in Special Education, I just wanted to let you all who stepped up to help this young man know how much y'all touched my heart!! This is fantastic!! Y'all are amazing people!!



P.S. I hope no one thought it was "out of line" for me to post about this, but it just touched my heart so much, as a teacher, when others step up to help your students succeed it really excites you!!
