Pick a significant weather event and compile research of that event regarding facts, sources and raw data about air temperature, wind speed and humidity. Plot the raw data on a graph of your choice such as a histogram, time series or scatter plot. Include the most important variables that factored into the storm such as temperature versus time of day and decide which measurements, like Celsius or Fahrenheit, to include in the graph or graphs.
Provide a topic from the given materials to create your own headline of the story that succinctly describes the direction of the event. Reference an actual recorded event to model how headlines are written. For example, the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys Superbowl was dubbed "The Ice Bowl," because of the icy conditions that affected the game.
Describe the setting of the story by correctly mapping the location. The geographical region provides clues as to the typical climate found in that part of the map. Gather information from eyewitness sources to give credibility to your story such as the people caught in the storm and how it influenced them and the environment. Brainstorm interviewing questions and quote the people interviewed.
Add additional information in how the government or independent volunteers are helping those recovering from the bad storm or tragedy.
Debrief the audience with an upcoming forecast that is to follow. Incorporate temperatures and additional photos.
