Hold onto your hats because the Museum of Discovery and Science (MODS) is embarking on a whirlwind adventure through the wild weather systems of Earth’s atmosphere. Uncover the secrets of Everglades wildfires, learn about the profound impact of drought, and understand why Florida’s aquifers rely on rain.

Exhibits, Shows and Demos: For the budding city planners, head to the Makerspace and let your imagination run wild constructing structures capable of withstanding storm flooding; it’s a real-world challenge that’s both fun and educational!

Animal Encounters: See the museum's resident animals and learn what they do when challenging weather comes to Florida.

Watch an IMAX on the GIANT Screen: Arctic: Our Frozen Planet, Great Bear Rainforest and more.

Career Connection: Learn about meteorologists and how they predict weather.

Just for early learners (ages 0-6): Young meteorologists can discover how windstorms are born by observing hurricanes in a bowl, tornadoes in a bottle and even build structures that can brave the fiercest of storm winds.
