John Huth Weather Wind and Waves Workshop

Weather and Waves Workshop

Sunday , February 28, 2016

Meeting Room REI , Reading, MA, 

11:30-4:00PM 

John Huth once again has volunteered his time to present a workshop for NSPN  on Weather Wind and Waves  and how these apply  to sea kayaking. This John's past presentations have been favorites of club members. John is a long time NSPN member, with  a unique set of qualifications  to present on this subject as he is both a physics professor/ lecturer at Harvard University  and  an experienced  sea kayaker. John's experiences  as a sea kayaker   have stimulated him to focus some of his academic research on  kayak related aspects of the physical world.    
This is a  workshop  you won't want to miss.,

Johns past courses have broadly covered   issues of weather and waves: the approach of warm and cold fronts, how to read cloud formations, wind, consider  the air circulation around high and low pressure systems, and how to evaluate weather signs. Members have come away  from past workshops with a heightened understanding and appreciation  of the physical forces that affect us while on the water:  this session  will help the sea kayaker evaluate and respond to rapidly changing local conditions through observations and decision making.

The session will last from 11:30AM  to @  4:00PM   and were all be ample opportunity for snacks, questions and participation.
REI opens on Sunday morning at  11:00AM

The Meeting Room is in the left  rear of the store.   
 

Please RSVP  here in the calendar posting for this session: REI has  not-unlimited space and past workshops have been very well attended.
