Weather engineers have come a long way in designing technology that provides advanced warnings of severe weather. Six lessons and six activities make up a collection of resources that teach middle schoolers about weather and weather technology. Young meteorologists learn the basics of weather, build weather instruments, design model levees, and consider how to reduce their carbon footprint.
