Here are some links to storm spotter manuals* that we recommend. We have included the latest versions from the National Weather Service. Some that we or others have developed. As with any information received about storm spotting, this is just a guide and not the final works. Each situation is different and needs to be handled accordingly. Remember, you take your own safety and that of others into your own hands each time you are out storm spotting.
National Weather Service:
Basic Spotter Manual
Advanced Spotter Manual
Winter Storm Brochure
Local Spotter Manuals:
2008 Cloud Cowboy Reference Manual - this is the official manual for the Dallas County RACES program, so a
lot of information included in it refers to Dallas, Texas and the
surrounding area. This is an excellent source of information for all
spotters and should assist in the development of other guides across
the nation.
* These are storm spotter manuals and not related to storm chasing. While some of the information can be used for both, please visit Storm Spotters United™, to seek out and learn more about storm chasing.
