Hey kids, have you ever wanted to become a television weather forecaster?  If you are in 3rd, 4th or 5th Grade... now is your chance.

Every Friday NewsChannel Five will give you the opportunity to be part of the daily weather show from the Storm Center Five weather center.  To become a Jr. Forecaster, just click on the "Raindrop" and follow the instructions.  

All you need to do is print out the coloring book page, color it any way you like, then on the back tell us a quick weather story.  The story can be about a snow storm, some scary lightning or just a pleasant sunny day that you remember.  When you are finished drop off the artwork and essay page at:
