Weather Lab: Gladys Wood Elementary takes a field trip to the studio

ANCHORAGE, AK (Alaska’s News Source) - The third-graders from Gladys Wood Elementary School took a field trip to the Alaska’s News Source studios Tuesday to get a behind-the-scenes look at all that it takes to gather the news and produce live television.

They were eager to learn more about how Melissa forecasts the weather, the tools she uses, and why she has so many computers.

Melissa says these students were sharp, and after she saw how skilled they were on the green screen, she thinks there may be some future meteorologists in this group!
