About the Sessions

Learn Weather.
Your Way.

My 1-on-1 training sessions are informal, focused, and delivered via live screen-sharing. Whether you're brand new to meteorology or looking to push your forecasting to the next level, sessions are shaped entirely around you.

Don't know where to start? I offer a structured lesson format so you can hit the ground running. Already know what you want to cover? Just tell me and that's what the session becomes.

Curriculum

What You Can Learn.

Sessions span all levels. Beginners start with the basics; advanced students go deeper into operational forecasting techniques used in the field.

Beginner

Meteorology Fundamentals

Introduction to weather systems, atmospheric instability, and how severe storms form. No prior knowledge needed.

Beginner–Intermediate

Severe Weather Recognition

Learning to identify supercell characteristics, wall clouds, rotating updrafts, and the visual cues that indicate tornado risk.

Intermediate

Storm Forecasting

Reading SPC outlooks, mesoscale discussions, and model data. Understanding what makes a day worth chasing.

Advanced

Skew-T Diagrams

Interpreting atmospheric soundings, CAPE, CIN, lifted index, hodographs, and how they translate to tornado potential in the field.

Intermediate–Advanced

Upper Air Chart Analysis

500mb charts, jet stream positioning, vorticity, and how upper-level dynamics set up surface severe weather patterns.

All Levels

Your Topics

No fixed agenda required. If you have specific topics you want to cover, from hail forecasting to nowcasting techniques, just bring them.

What I Cover
  • All levels of severe weather forecasting
  • Supercells, hail, and tornado meteorology
  • Skew-T and upper air chart interpretation
  • Operational chase day forecasting
  • Radar interpretation and storm-relative motion
  • Custom topics of your choosing
Important Limitations
  • I am not a professional meteorologist or university professor
  • Cannot assist with thermodynamic equations or advanced academic theory
  • Does not cover monsoons, hurricanes, tropical storms, or winter weather

My strength is in applied, operational severe weather knowledge gained from 20+ years in the field, not academic meteorology.

I learned more from David in the first few hours than months of study on my own.
