Even though the threat of severe thunderstorms and tornadoes ends during the winter, we still need your spotter reports! Your spotter reports are just as important during the winter season and help us with warning and advisory decisions for Southeast Michigan. Your reports also help us tell the story of each winter storm or snowfall event. Snowfall and precipitation type can vary greatly even over small distance within one county. Those reports are sent out and use by the local and national media. The also appear on our web page and help us draw our snowfall maps.

The winter spotter class will last roughly an hour and 15 minutes. Topics include:

 Review 2020-21 winter season

 Winter weather climatology

 Examination of winter weather meteorology

 NWS winter forecast products

 Guidelines & reporting procedure for winter weather spotters
