Welcome to Weather Camp, and welcome to the Hill! This is the 3rd annual WKU Weather Camp and the staff and I are excited to finally make this a residential camp, allowing students from all over the country to not have to worry about driving back and fourth. Above all, we are excited to fuel the passion that campers have about weather, and to impact their lives in encouraging and uplifting ways as they learn more and more about the atmospheric phenomena known to us as the weather.
