Yesterday, we shared the exciting news of our STM Gardens virtual learning series that will be launching on April 1. In this week's blog, Alicia C.

STM Weather is growing! ?? STM Gardens, an online learning series by STM Weather, is launching April 1, 2025. There is arguably no bigger factor that affects the health of your garden more than the weather. Weather and climate directly influence plant growth, health, and harvest. With STM Gardens, we’ll be taking a deep dive into specific weather topics as they relate to gardening. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or just starting out, a deeper understanding of the weather, and how to observe, track, and learn from the nuances and specific patterns in your zone can make all the difference in cultivating a thriving garden. While there are numerous courses, blogs, podcasts, and communities on social media for gardeners to educate themselves and improve their skills, Alicia C. Wasula, PhD, CCM noticed a lack in the market for products that specifically address the all-important weather component to gardening. Before our first class becomes available for purchase on April 1, we would love to provide a few home gardeners with the chance to beta test our class and provide feedback. If you are interested in being a test student, please check out the below post for details: https://lnkd.in/epEms5De

We at STM Weather are deeply grateful for the dedicated civil servants within NOAA and the National Weather Service who work tirelessly to provide accurate and timely weather information. Their expertise and commitment to serving the public not only keep us informed, but also help us make crucial, and at times life-saving, decisions while navigating the challenges of weather. Their efforts ensure safety and preparedness, and we thank each and every member for their invaluable contributions.

??? We're so excited to bring you this week's blog highlighting the Girls Who Chase (GWC) foundation! Just in time for Women's History Month, we sat down with the founder, Jennifer Walton, to chat about her journey from just dreaming to storm chasing, overcoming self-limiting beliefs, and how the GWC movement was born. GWC is also hosting a virtual "learn to storm chase" training event THIS Saturday open to all ages and genders. Details on how to register are in the blog! ???

The start of Meteorological Spring is right around the corner, and it's only a matter of time before the weather headlines turn from cold and snow to severe weather and tornadoes. In this week's blog, we take a look back at the history behind tornado chasing. Next week, in anticipation of Women's History month, we'll follow up by highlighting an organization that is seeking to even out the representation of women in the field of storm chasing. Stay tuned! https://lnkd.in/e76yGpyh

Those who live in the Northeast may just be getting to the point where you're sick of it, BUT there's no denying the absolute stunning beauty of a fresh new snowfall!

This year's winter has certainly been making a name for itself, and those in the northeast are continuing to be reminded that winter is far from over! In this week's blog, Kelly takes a look at one of the most historic winter storms in US history - the St. Valentine's Day Blizzard of 1899. https://lnkd.in/dR6Dsr2P
