Use of the simulator in classroom settings can complement teachers’ weather units in science and may inspire future scientists. Each simulation runs approximately 20 minutes. Upon completion of each event, the participant will receive a score indicating his/her success in a simulation. HotSeat uses archived Weather Surveillance Radar (WSR-88D) data, severe weather reports, and damage survey photographs from actual events in a displaced real-time (DRT) mode to approximate the feel of issuing severe weather warnings in the NWS.
