The topic for the May CPO Meeting is "Starry Nights Ahead: Weather Forecasting Tools and Tips for Astronomers"We amateur astronomers are always thinking about the weather: Will tomorrow night be good few tracking down some favorite astronomical sights, or will those darned clouds get between our ‘scopes and the starry sky?! Our May speaker will help us get a better handle on the weather. She is meteorologist Christy Shields of the Discovery Space, formerly of WTJA-TV. Christy is going to tell us about basic tools for forecasting the weather and give us tips about forecasting that are useful for astronomers. Her talk will span everything from primitive forecasting to computer models of weather systems, showing us how to access the data to make our own forecasts.
Pizza at 7:00! Come out and join us for this interesting talk. This event is open to the public.
