Meteorologists in action

Have you ever seen a tornado into a bottle? Why the water rises in an upturned glass? Did you know that we can inflate balloons without getting tired? Did you have the chance to make your own clouds? Can you realize the greenhouse effect by using simple materials? You will have the opportunity to become the meteorologist of the next day by forecasting the weather. Be sure that you will play many Meteo-games and the winner will be defined by the weather. All of these, along with many other impressive meteorological experiments will be presented at this year’s Athens Science Festival!!! You shouldn’t miss the opportunity to have a closer look at these spectacular experiments. The only thing you have to do is to come and visit ‘meteorologists in action’.
