Dr. David Dubois, New Mexico State Climatologist In-Person
How you can learn about the weather by being a citizen scientist. This talk will provide information on how anyone can help collect weather data in their backyard. I will introduce what the Community Collaborative Rain Hail and Snow network does and how you can join us. I will also talk about how to find weather information such as high and low temperatures, rainfall, snowpack, drought, and forecasts. We will have a question and answer time, so bring your questions.
