Practically oriented course consists of lectures in the winter semester and exercises running both semesters. At the beginning of the course, students will first get acquainted with various tools of weather analysis and forecasting, which are then used in lectures to analyze selected weather events from the past, including examples of their forecasting. Exercises lasting 45 minutes in both semesters take place in the form of seminars over the current weather (so-called meteo-meetings); these seminars can also be attended by other members of the academic community, active participation of participants is welcome.

The exam completes a series of lectures in the winter semester. It has an oral form. We will present you with a series of different products of analysis and weather forecast for a certain day and you will read from them what the weather was like on that day and how it differed from the forecast.

The course-unit credit is awarded at the end of the summer semester, when you have completed both semesters of exercises. At least 10 active participations in each semester are obligatory. Active participation means that you will prepare one slide for each exercise with a selected point of interest about the weather last week in the Czech Republic or anywhere in the world, and you will present this point of interest at the exercise in one minute. In addition, once a semester you compile and present the weather forecast for the next week, and at the next exercise you present the weather analysis of the given week.
