If you don’t like the weather, just wait five minutes. We’ve all seen a day start with a frost and end with a sunburn. But here’s the thing -- while the atmosphere is unpredictable, our ability to track it shouldn't be. No matter what curveballs the sky throws at us, you can be a part of this historic weather story. You see things a satellite can’t. You know that the rain gauge on your porch might tell a completely different story than the one on the farm just two miles down the road. Mid-West Farm Report is inviting you to join more than 500 of your neighbors across the state as a volunteer weather observer for CoCoRaHS -- Community Collaborative Rain, Hail, and Snow Network. By reporting what’s happening right outside your window, you’re helping the National Weather Service determine the true impact and severity of every storm. Take it from Cynnara Montag, a proud weather observer since 2021, when she answered the call from her local watershed group to help the National Weather Service. She tells Stephanie Hoff that the reports provide a high-definition picture of where the rain actually falls. Sign up today at WisconsinWeatherWatchers.org. Don’t just endure the weather, track it, understand it, and tell the story.
