Comment on this resource
EarthStorm is part of the educational outreach of the Oklahoma Climatological Survey (OCS). It provides workshops, lesson plans, classroom activities and potential speakers as resources for K-12 educators. It highlights student projects that use data provided by OCS. Scientific staff are available as mentors. Career information about the atmospheric sciences is also provided. Weather data in terms of weather facts, climate maps, daily weather maps and Oklahoma mesonet information is accessible. Earthstorm also hosts various online forums. Many of the activities focus on the use of Oklahoma mesonet data but are adaptable to other data sources.
