Severe Weather Learning Experience Tour

The house is equipped with:

 

Strobe lights over the windows to simulate lightning;

 

Speakers to play the sounds of rain, thunder, wind and a tornado siren;

 

A subwoofer to shake the trailer with each crack of thunder;
A television on which participants watch a simulated severe weather news advisory; and
A weather radio that plays severe weather alerts.

 

The severe weather simulation is controlled by a computer and stereo system in the control room.

During the severe weather simulation, children learn how to understand severe weather warnings on television, assume the proper crouching position during a tornado and remain calm during a storm.
