Please read this important information before you register!
Â
1. The training  is geared toward new and veteran storm  spotters, as well as the general public and anyone interested in severe storms in or adjacent to the NWS Norman county warning area Â
Â
2. The webinar  will be slightly different than the ones did earlier this year. I hope to cover some very basic information about dual pol radar, as well as some information concerning our fall severe weather season. The rest of the training will cover the basics and will also be a good refresher for those who have attended training  before. We cannot show video, however. Â
Â
3. You can access the training  material (which will be very similar to what's presented on the webinars ) on the NWS YouTube channel - http://www.youtube.com/user/usweathergov#g/c/E428D98ED9A614C9  in case you are not able to make it. Feel free to share this link.
Â
4. Individuals can register and participate in the training, but spotters should check with their local emergency manager/ spotter  group leader to find out whether the training  will satisfy any local training  requirements.
Â
5. Oklahoma law enforcement officers are eligible for two hours of Cleet credit, But Only If They Attend The Training  At A Location Hosted By An Emergency Manager . We cannot award credit for individuals who complete the training  individually.Â
Â
6. Emergency managers and others may wish to host the training  at a central location and invite people to participate as a group. I've attached a document explaining how to set up the classroom for a hosted webinar  presentation.
Â
7. I will provide a certificate for those who participate in the webinar . If you are hosting and have multiple people participating, I will send a blank certificate that you can distribute as you see fit.
