Meteorology (Virtual Discovery Friday) In-Person
Join us for Discovery Friday! Each week we'll have an exciting presentation or hands-on activity. This week we'll learn about meteorology - the study of weather. We'll learn about different kind of clouds, how to make observations and there will be an optional tutorial on how to make your own weather station.
