What a morning at Nichols Hills Elementary! Meteorologist Jonathan Conder spent time with an amazing group of students talking weather, science, and broadcasting—answering smart questions and sharing how our KOCO 5 team turns data into forecasts. To top it off, he went live from the classroom to bring the excitement to our viewers.
