SOUTHERN COLORADO (KOAA) — On Tuesday, Meteorologist Lauren Brand visited Queen Palmer Elementary School to speak with kindergartners about weather safety.

They discussed what to do and where to go when the weather gets bad. These students were so excited for Lauren to visit and share with her their favorite kinds of weather.

On Wednesday, Lauren traveled to Pueblo to talk with more kindergartners about the weather.

They have recently been learning about the different seasons and when we experience these changes in our weather. At the end of the presentation they each gave Lauren a picture of their favorite season!
