Ready to get your hands wet (and maybe a little windy)? In this fast-paced, hands-on workshop, learners explore two of the most powerful weather forces on earth: tornadoes and floods. Build your own tornado model using simple materials and see what makes twisters spin. Then, put your engineering skills to the test by creating barriers to protect a miniature town from rising floodwaters. You'll walk away with a better understanding of storm science and how to protect yourself when nature gets extreme.
