Do you know what Weather Forecasters do? Weather forecasters use scientific tools to measure data like temperature and wind speed. They study weather patterns, create forecasts and track any storms that may come our way. In a weather emergency, forecasters work before and during a storm to share weather advice with helpers -- like news meteorologists and public service workers -- who keep our community informed.
