In this four-day interactive camp, students will explore the science behind tropical waves, hurricanes, and large-scale weather patterns that influence tropical storm development. Using real-world data and National Hurricane Center (NHC) forecasting tools, learners will gain a deeper understanding of hurricane formation, climatology, and impacts. Through engaging lectures, discussions, and interactive visuals, students will analyze how tropical storms evolve, why some systems intensify into catastrophic hurricanes, and how meteorologists track and predict these powerful weather events. Class Schedule: ✅ Day 1: How Tropical Waves Form & Their Role in Hurricane Development ✅ Day 2: The Science of Tropical Storms – From Waves to Hurricanes ✅ Day 3: Atlantic Basin Climatology & How the NHC Tracks Storms ✅ Day 4: Storm Surge, Hurricane Hunters & Real-World Case Studies What to Expect: 🌀 Engaging PowerPoint lectures with real-world examples 📖 Pre-course vocabulary materials to enhance understanding 📡 Hands-on exploration of NHC forecasting products 🗣️ Class discussions & Q&A to encourage student interaction 🎯 No major homework – just reading vocabulary prep before class This class is perfect for students interested in meteorology, earth science, and extreme weather events.
