On Wednesday, First Alert 5 Meteorologist Jessica Van Meter visited the 5th graders at Rockrimmon Elementary School in Colorado Springs to talk about the different types of severe weather southern Colorado deals with and ways to stay safe in storms.
The students were excited to learn about the different weather events our area experiences. And to ask questions about staying safe. They were also excited because it was the last day of school before Spring Break!
