In 1998, Weather 2000 assisted on a meteorological observation project, sponsored by the Hudson River museum. The goal of the project was to establish a weather observation station and computerized network on the Museum's Yonkers-On-Hudson property, to help the students learn about the weather in their neighborhood. We are presently involved in similar projects around the area. |

With the speed of the Internet, damaging misinformation can spread rather quickly, with very few checks and balances. At Weather 2000, we strive for the highest level of scientific integrity in everything we do, both in and out of the workplace. Practices to the contrary, which do exist, are only damaging to the scientific profession. Weather 2000 has teamed up with academic institutions and research scientists to combat pseudo-meteorology, insure scientific integrity and protect the public's interests. For more information, please see our FAQ, and specifically our section titled "Scientific Integrity in Weather Forecasting".
