“A perfect day for weather school.” KFOR’s Emily Sutton talks weather at National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum

OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) – The American West is well known for some of its ‘wild’ weather, so what better place to host a wild weather school lesson than the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum.

The 4 Warn Storm Team’s Emily Sutton spoke to 800 school students during the event, sharing stories about the dangerous weather phenomena we see here in Oklahoma like tornadoes, lightning, heat, flash flooding and even snow.

Emily concluded the highlighted event showcasing understanding storms with a game called the “thunderstorm” game in discussing the importance of being prepared, and not scared of severe weather. She had students snapping their fingers and stomping their feet. In fact, when they did, it got so loud, some said it felt like a real thunderstorm and the building and our camera was shaking.
