The National Weather Service will train new and veteran spotters on how to look for and report significant event-driven weather events. Training includes video demonstrations.

Spotters are needed, particularly in the out-of-town and waterfront areas of the San Juan Islands.

Ideal spotters will already own basic weather instrumentation, especially an anemometer, or will be interested in buying one soon.
