SKYWARN is a National Weather Service (NWS) program of trained volunteer severe weather spotters.
Skywarn volunteers support their local community by providing the NWS with timely and accurate severe weather reports.
These reports, when integrated with modern NWS technology, are used to inform communities of the proper actions to take as severe weather threatens.
The key focus of the program is to save lives and property through the use of the observations and reports of trained volunteers.
