Take chemistry, biology, physics, trigonometry, and Calculus. But listen, getting into an undergraduate program is somewhat easy. Meterology is the major you would take while getting your masters or Ph.d. Undergrad majors you would apply for would be geology or physics. The specialization of meterology is a grad school major. So relax, you'll be just fine getting into your intial 4 -year school. And I give you a lot of credit for knowing what you want to do already. You have a great advantage in your life. I plan to pursue a Ph.D in Neuroscience, and I didn't begin college unitl I was 25 years old! Trust me, you're ahead of the game. Do some research on the internet about your degree. You will find out which schools offer your graduate degree, and usually they will tell you which Undergraduate majors they accept.
