Wright Library will welcome Mark Risley as he presents “The Thunderstorm” Sunday, April 22nd at 2:00 p.m. in the Library Meeting Room. Advance registration is required and limited to 65. Contact the Reference Department at (937) 294-7171 or by email to register beginning Monday, April 9th.
Thunderstorms fill up the skies, light up the night, water our lawns and gardens, wash our streets and frighten our pets. They can also kill indiscriminately. Oakwood Historical Society past-president Mark Risley will draw upon his commercial aviation weather background to present an educational, in-depth look at these magnificent and powerful atmospheric giants. He will discuss their causes and development, present a dissection of a thunderstorm cell and, most importantly, talk about storm safety.
