It’s not just kids who are afraid of thunderstorms, but many adults are petrified of various weather phenomena, which is why National Weather Service offices across Iowa are offering a Storm Anxiety Webinar and Q & A session this week. Meteorologist Rebekka Copple is hosting the free online event.

Tornadoes, powerful winds, thunder and lightning can all be frightening, but some might question why you’d be afraid of a snowstorm.

Copple says they’ll cover a wide range of naturally-occurring events that can give some people persistent frights.

Copple is based at the National Weather Service bureau in Lincoln, Illinois. The webinar starts at 6 P-M Wednesday. Register here: www.attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/3012230203951272281.
