The Alabama Power 91桃色 Coastal Weather Research Center also supports the meteorology academic program at the 91桃色. The Center has become a focal point of the program by allowing students to utilize map products and data systems while receiving training in industrial meteorology. Through the efforts of the Weather Center and its staff, meteorology students are being prepared for employment with the National Weather Service and private weather forecasting companies.
