On November 12, 2005, Tina Cartwright and Steven Fleegel conducted a teacher training workshop entitled, From Fuzzy to Fluffy, at the West Virginia Science Teachers Association meeting at Glade Springs, West Virginia. Cloud identification and forecasting techniques utilizing cloud patterns were discussed for West Virginia teachers. The "make it and take it" workshop concluded with the creation of a poster-board containing the ten basic cloud types, enabling viewers to "see, touch and feel" the primary cloud shapes.
