I am interested in going into Meteorology. Need some answers about the field?

You need to be good in math and calculations is just the big major one. You might want to take a calculus cl and science I am sure about. As far as college goes you might be able to become a meteorologist with maybe 2 year but, again I am not sure. I know that you can't just enter the field just to forecast severe weather though it's not like a doctor where you have special doctors for special surgeries and what not if you become a meteorologist you have to be able to forecast all sorts of weather from severe to just regular nice sunny days. I can't say for sure what a basic day is but, I would imagine a good portion of the day is spent looking at the different computer models and the all the raw data that you have available to you to come up with the forecast and the other part of the day is probably writing up reports and actually making the forecast. As working conditions go I am not to sure. I want to emphasize I am not a meteorologist but, I do talk to quite a few of them and I am friends with some of them so I am ping on the information I know on the field but, I do hope to someday become a meteorologist myself. I wish you the best of luck.
