First Alert Weather's Beyond the Green Screen is a show that covers not only weather and climate but also other interesting topics related to Arizona. The Arizona's Family First Alert Weather team uses this platform to explore subjects such as astronomy, desert gardening, our landscape, our precious resources, and more. It's a forum that allows us to go beyond the forecast, which is why it's called First Alert Weather's Beyond the Green Screen.
