On Wednesday, Meteorologist Alex O'Brien visited with students in southern Colorado to teach them how to be safe during severe weather in Colorado.
First, she met with 3rd and 4th graders at Eagleside Elementary in Fountain. The students loved the videos and the experiment.
Then she visited Ms. Riffle's 5th grade class at Ute Pass Elementary in Cascade. The students had cool weather stories and good questions for Alex.
