Home of the World’s Worst Weather Live!
2020-03-30 14:09:36.000 – Rebecca Scholand, Summit Operations Manager
It’s nothing new that the Mount Washington Observatory is committed to education. In fact, part of our mission is to advance the understanding of the natural systems that create Earth’s weather and Climate. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic forcing schools to close nationwide we hit the drawing board to create a virtual classroom. Starting today, we are offering free distance learning programs three times a week to support educators in providing remote learning opportunities from the “Home of the World’s Worst Weather”.
Utilizing Facebook Live, students can join “Home of the Worst Weather Live” three days a week. Every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday at 11:15am one of our Weather Observers or Staff members will present on a variety of topics. Monday’s we will focus on a special topic, while Tuesday’s and Thursday’s we will highlight the latest weather conditions and review the higher summits forecast. Each program will also include a Q&A session in real time. Concluding each live program, we will upload the sessions to our website at mountwashington.org/classroom so they can be viewed at any time. In addition to the programs, the site will also provide resources and activities related to the science of weather for use by students to explore further on their own.
