Today, Meteorologist Alex O'Brien visited students to teach them about severe weather in Colorado.
First, she went to McAuliffe Elementary in Colorado Springs to see the 3rd graders. They were dressed up in their Halloween costumes today while learning about snow storms and tornadoes.
Then, she went to Mountainside Elementary in Fort Carson to visit the 3rd graders there. The students learned the weather dance/yoga today!
All of the students were enthusiastic about learning today and had good questions for Alex about the weather.
