Description

Wild Weather puts visitors directly in the path of a tornado, inside the eye of a hurricane, and in the midst of a raging winter storm as they learn about some of nature’s most powerful and destructive forces! In this highly immersive exhibition, produced in association with the Ontario Science Centre, visitors will experience the intensity and unpredictability of severe weather.

Through hands-on exhibits, multi-player challenges and interactive multimedia experiences, Wild Weather reveals how scientists are working to better forecast these events and help mitigate the impact on communities, infrastructure and lives. From the safety of the exhibit hall, this blockbuster exhibition also explores the effects of climate change on severe weather around the globe and teaches visitors how they can best weather the storm!
