Are there any colleges that offer an associates degree in meteorology?

[Wade12345]

I'm not good enough at differentials to pass a bachelor's degree program, but I could easily pass an associates degree program. I am self trained in meteorology and can forecast track and intensity of hurricanes and tornadoes very well. I just need a piece of paper to prove it and then I could get a field job chasing tornadoes and hurricanes.

No certain answer can be found,
Of colleges that offer this degree around.
The search may come up empty and bare,
But don't despair, the answer may still be there.

Oh the man with a passion for the weather and its lore,
He's a self trained meteorologist, barely went to school for sure.
From classes he took online, and books he read on his own,
He learned all the science to prepare him for his storm chasing drone.

He studied hard and long, until finally he achieved,
A degree in meteorology, no longer to be deceived.
He now had the knowledge and skills to pursue his dream,
To chase after tornadoes and hurricanes, with no fear of extreme.

He'd travel around the country, from the east coast to the west,
In search of these storms, his heart would beat its best.
To the Midwest he'd go, to states like Oklahoma and Texas,
He'd watch for signs of nature's wrath, that could cause such a mess.

When the storm was spotted, he'd race to get inside,
Ready to take pictures and videos, his eyes wide.
He'd measure wind speeds and hail size, and watch for rainbows and lightning,
All in the hopes of learning more about these storms that were frightening.

This meteorologist is so renown,
Had dreams and visions just like a crown,
A force of nature he could feel,
Providing insight into what was real,

He can see the hurricanes and tornadoes afar,
Before they wreak havoc on the land and stars,
A special gift from God above,
He's able to warn us all with love.

A talent that was most unique,
Recognizing tornadoes and hurricanes so sleek,
A gift from God it seemed so clear,
Able to predict the weather so dear.

He knows when a storm's about to come,
And when a hurricane is on the run,
His dreams and visions keep us safe,
From hurricanes and tornadoes we can't escape.

An amazing talent, one of a kind,
Providing knowledge of what's to be behind,
The power of a meteorologist's sight,
Giving insight into day and night.

Dude don't mock me. I was an engineering major, which is one of the hardest curricula at university. I passed most of a physics major and half of a math major in the process of trying to get an engineering degree. Its like 135 credit hours to get that degree. I dropped out because some of the material was flat out over my head.

I don't mock you, wish you all the best of success,
and you definitely surpassed these guys, at least:

@Wade12345 YES, one of the technicians that worked for me was getting a degree at night. He had to take an elective and saw meteorology and thought it would be cool. He was a relatively smart guy but he told me that it was the hardest course he had to tale by a lot. He said it was nuts. He expected it to be easy.

[Wade12345]

@exitseven It's not easy. You have to leanr to read pressure gradient charts and steering wind charts and stuff to do it formally. I forecast hurricanes and tornadoes "topologically" which is how NHC WANTS to learn to make a computer forecast work. The numerical data NHC and NWS use is very difficult to learn to understand fully.

@Wade12345 In grad school I took a course called Discrete Mathematics. I learned how to forecast the weather using matrices. This is how they did it in the old days before computers.

[Wade12345]

@exitseven The computer still does it that way, but it does 2km matrices for the entire planet and it does 64 vertical layers for the entire planet. That's the GFS.

pretty amazing.

Would be interesting to see if one could get an AA in meteorology. But you always hear of people having a 4 year degree in it. I've always found meteorology to be interesting but my career was in the medical sciences so it wasn't the path that I took.

You should get a chatgpt account and ask the AI. it WILL have an answer for you. But keep in mind that it's sometimes wrong and you'll only know it's wrong if you already know the right answer. But in the case of your question, it will definitely give you a right answer.

You are asking us to do the research for you? Come on man. We don't get paid for anything we post here. Not even gift cards.

[Wade12345]

I've tried searching for them using Google, Bing, and Yahoo, and the searches come up negative or irrelevant topics. I don't know what to do. i know there are schools like this, but I don't know how to find them in a search engine because apparently Im using the wrong keywords.

I Know Google has a few tricks you can try to get more accurate results
