Thanks David for the GREAT SITES!
I really liked Dan's Wild Wild Weather Page and Making a Weather Station
and Franklin's Forecast. I am going to have my different kids go to the
sites tomorrow and take notes. I went through the sites and connected to
the different instruments and weather jobs and have assigned them to each
group. Thanks again! I listed below the sites for each catagory.
