Details:
Beginning today, there is a WC challenge that will be about the BEST photo uploaded to Texas Weather Center! If you remember the last contests, you should know how this works. Everything works the same, but WC is going to do 2 annual contests instead of just 1! It’s 2022, a new year with a whole new fall/winter season ahead of us for more AMAZING pictures! The purpose of this contest is to bring the WC community together but also get others outside in the environment taking pictures of the amazing weather around us and flexing their photography skills, ultimately learning new things!
Rewards:
Winner gets 500 Bonus WC Skill points PLUS WC will buy them a FREE WC Photo Contest t-shirt from it’s shop! WC will contact the winner through email to setup delivery options!
Contest Duration:
Start Date: March 1st, 2022
End Date: June 1st, 2022
You have 92 days to get the best picture you’ve ever gotten!
