The North Florida Chapter maintains an electronic archive of old public chapter records and useful documents. Included here are membership applications, press releases, the chapter constitution and more. Most documents are posted in PDF format; the free Adobe Reader is required to view these files.

Should you require some other piece of information that you feel may be in our records or that we can obtain, please e-mail us at northflams@gmail.com.

Though it is not required for membership in the North Florida Chapter, we encourage membership in the American Meteorological Society, please download the appropriate membership application from their website. The benefits are great and it is quite affordable, with discounts for current students. Don’t forget to fill in your local chapter affiliation!
