It’s not just kids who are afraid of thunderstorms, but many adults are petrified of various weather phenomena, which is why National Weather Service offices across Iowa are offering a Storm Anxiety Webinar and Q-and-A session this week. Meteorologist Rebekka Copple is hosting the free online event.  She feels education into what people find scary can help them overcome that fear.  Copple says they’ll cover a wide range of naturally-occurring events that can give some people persistent frights. The webinar starts at 6 P-M Wednesday.
