island students as meterologists
Here at Pine Island our Weatherbug helps our student meteorologists to give daily radio reports and recommendations for protective clothing. They also advise the Principal about indoor or outdoor recess decisions.
Parents and families can see what the weather is like at the school from the comfort of their home or work place. A video camera is aimed across the Black Dirt, and you can see the weather patterns moving in.
Below is a direct link where you will
find lots of information and the live camera view from the
school. You will not need to download.

Our computer teacher Mrs. RoseMary Klie helps us keep the
equipment in order, as well as guiding students in
interpreting the data.
We hope you will be able to utilize this great resource at
home, just as we have here at school.
