SOUTHERN NEW ENGLAND VIRTUAL
"MINI-CONFERENCE" 10AM-12:30PM on SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 13
We're going to keep things on the safe side again this year to discuss our passion for weather, so we will "meet" virtually once again. That being said, we are excited to announce that a virtual "mini conference" will be held on Saturday, November 13th between 10AM and 12:30PM - so mark your calendar!

In light of the current climate and many unknowns regarding
COVID-19, the Southern New England Weather
Conference committee made the difficult decision to
postpone our annual conference. The health and safety for
our presenters/attendees is our top priority. The next
Southern New England Weather Conference will be held in the
Fall of 2022. We understand the disappointment this might have
caused and, believe us, we are
equally disappointed as well
The Southern New England Weather Conference is a non-profit venture that is sponsored by the National Weather Service Taunton MA, the Blue Hill Observatory and Science Center, the University of Massachusetts-Lowell Student Chapter of the American Meteorological Society and the Lyndon State College Chapter of the American Meteorological Society/National Weather Association.
