![An exciting day for Sanford Middle School 5th graders began before sunrise on Wednesday as they welcomed WMTW Channel 8 Meteorologist Ted McInerney to campus. Several students had the unique opportunity to participate in McInerney's live morning weather broadcast as part of the station's popular "Weather At Your School" program. The educational experience didn't end with the morning broadcast. Later in the day, McInerney returned to SMS to deliver a comprehensive presentation on meteorology to the entire 5th grade. Students learned about weather patterns, forecasting techniques, and the science behind meteorology during the engaging session. The visit provided students with both an inside look at television broadcasting and valuable science education from one of Maine's well-known meteorologists.
