Advanced Storm Spotter Training Class

Advanced Storm Spotter Training/ Greensburg Review: February 7, Mayes County

 

(ABOVE: This F2 tornado passed with 100 yards of us)

On Saturday, February 7 2009, I'll team up with professional storm chaser Lanny Dean to present an advanced weather program in Mayes county. 

You are welcome to attend if you are a storm spotter, emergency or law enforcement. This program isn't for kids-- it's not a "family" or a "fun" show, but instead deals with advanced spotting techniques, survival and mental anguish.

My part of the program regards advanced storm spotter training. Lanny's program deals with his chase of the deadly EF5 rated Greensburg, KS tornado. Lanny was the first chaser on the scene after the tornado shredded the town, and Lanny will talk about his experience coming across dead bodies and the mental and moral issues involved. 

If you are interested in attending, please contact Kevin Bruce. Send me an email if you need his phone number. The info is below:

"Advanced Spotter Training/Greensburg review with George Flickinger and Lanny Dean.  Sat Feb 7 at 7pm.  NE Vo-Tech Center 5 and 1/2 mi west of Pryor on Hwy 20."
 
Thanks
