The seasons and why we have them: WCNC Charlotte Weather School

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The WCNC Weather School is back in session with a free, educational science class about equipment used to observe the weather.

Tuesday's lesson is with meteorologist Iisha Scott. She will explain the four seasons of weather, why we have them and their impact on weather patterns throughout the year.

The lessons, which will stream live starting at 1 p.m., will feature a variety of weather lessons and explainers hosted by the WCNC Charlotte weather team.
