Weather spotting or storm spotting is a form of weather spotting in which observers watch for the approach of severe weather, monitor its development and progression, and actively relay their findings to local authorities.

A portion of what the The Tulsa Equity Alliance Community Safety Crew focuses on is the understanding and reporting of, as well as responding to severe weather. Some of our members are or aspire to be trained Weather Spotters locally to assist with that focus area.

The National Weather Service - Tulsa office hosts free Weather Spotting Training annually for community members in Northeastern Oklahoma. Once trained, spotters are able to monitor severe weather events and provide first-hand severe weather reports to the National Weather Service in Tulsa, which are used to make critical warning decisions.
