Skywarn Recognition Day (0000 to 2400 UTC, Dec. 5, 2015):
http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/mtr/hamradio/
The net will be ONE HOUR EARLIER that night, at 7pm EST, 6pm CST, 5pm MST, 4pm PST, on December 5, 2015, as soon as Skywarn Recognition Day activities are concluded. Note that the net will go to the FIRST SATURDAY OF THE MONTH *ONLY*, starting with the December 5, 2015 Net. The regular weekly nets will continue through November…then resume as weekly in June, 2016. Also, with the first Saturday in January being the 2nd, there is a possibility that the January, 2016 Net will be moved to Saturday, January 9.
Plus, there is a possibility that the off season nets (January through May) will have “training presentations”. On those nights, checkins and comments will be taken by Net Management, and possibly Skywarn Coordinators ONLY. All other checkins will be CALLSIGNS ONLY, to allow plenty of time for the Training Presentations.
Watch the Yahoo Groups and Facebook page for updates on both of these items.
W3TDH will be coordinating the Skywarn Recognition Day participation for the Baltimore Washington Forecast Office. We will be available for the operating period on the *WASH_DC* Echolink Conference Bridge.
