PWAD

 

2025: Welcome to the Millersville University Student Chapter of the American Meteorological Society’s 17th Annual Public Weather Awareness Day!

We are excited to announce that this year’s Public Weather Awareness Day (PWAD) will be held again in the Student Memorial Center at Millersville University's main campus on Sunday, April 6th, 2025 from 12 PM-3 PM. Located below is additional information about this year’s PWAD, which will be updated continually as new events and vendors join along. We look forward to seeing you in person!

For vendors: arrive at the Reighard Multi-Purpose Room (SMC 114) by 10:00 AM to set up with our volunteers and greet our students!

 
 

What will you find at PWAD this year?

PWAD has tons of engaging activities—from trying to beat Weather Jeopardy, to getting an electric face painting, to playing with weather instruments through hands-on demonstrations, to hearing from the many artisans of meteorology and their fieldwork—and more!

Food including soft pretzels, cookies, and chips will be available, along with bottled water!

New information is added as we confirm the details about PWAD, so feel free to check the links above for details on experiments, vendors, and speakers.
