Watching The Weather On Wednesdays In West Islip

From West Islip School District: “Weather Watch Wednesday” comes every week in Sue Koos’ classroom at West Islip’s Manetuck Elementary School. The students go outside to observe the weather on Wednesdays, often using compasses and a flag to determine wind speed and direction. Each student comes up with one word to describe the weather for the day. They then note their observations in a weather journal.
