Hugaboom believes it is vital for stu- dents to learn about meteorology outside of the normal scope of their curriculum. “It is so important that my students be able to see the how different weather con- ditions actually occur and not just read about them in a book,” Hugaboom said. “It is still hard to believe we have access to such great information in real time.” While other states do have Mesonet

Dusty Hugaboom uses the technology on a daily basis in his classroom in the Enid School District. “The Oklahoma Mesonet has been my most valuable tool in my meteo- rology class,” Hugaboom said. “As an educator, we try to make our students’ education relevant to their lives and the Mesonet technology makes that easy.”


Matthew McCoy, a teacher at Irving Middle School in Norman, Okla., is


quick to admit getting his students to understand the process of observation, interpretation and prediction can be diffi cult. The Mesonet technology of- fers a unique perspective to students, especially during severe weather. “With severe storms in our state every year and the amazing radar images


that Mesonet provides, there’s a hands-on opportunity for the students to observe, interpret and predict with meaningful data,” McCoy said.

technology, Oklahoma’s is the fi rst net- work designed from the ground up to serve multiple purposes. “For the network to be sustainable, the data had to meet the needs of a range of user groups,” Melvin said. “Unlike a typi- cal weather network, we included non-stan- dard measurements like soil moisture and soil temperature at different depths, an additional air temperature at the top of the tower at orchard height, and a secondary wind speed lower on the tower at “tall” crop height.”


Data gathered from Mesonet over the past 20 years has been used to de- velop crop-related models to enhance production, fi re weather models to safely manage prescribed burns and to extinguish wildfi res and has led to the development of the SPIA Ice Index used by utility providers to plan and prepare for outages from major ice events. The Wet-Bulb Glob Temperature Risk index is a great tool for profession- als working outside—from road crews to roofers to folks enjoying the many state parks and lakes to determine how often to take breaks and hydrate on a hot day. It is safe to say the Oklahoma Mesonet is a valuable resource, both in and out of the classroom.
