CLEVELAND — This week's Trip Up Trent segment went to Willson School in Cleveland.

Marshawn, a 2nd-grader, wanted to know how much schooling it takes to become a meteorologist.

Trent said a lot! But it's a fun school. After high school, most meteorologists went to college for 4 more years. Then in continuing their education, they attend conferences and learn from journals on new technology. The seals you see next to their names on the news require extra education to maintain them.
