<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />hygrothermographs will be placed at the FiE~ld Headquarters, NCAR C-band <br /> <br /> <br />radar, and Merchant Valley remote sensing sites to record temperature <br /> <br />and relative humidity. A microbarograph will be placed at the Field <br /> <br /> <br />Headquarters site. <br /> <br /> <br />c. Rawinsonde data. Rawinsonde data will be collected at <br /> <br /> <br />Adamsville by Charlie and Millie Von Ritchie (UDWR contract personnel) <br /> <br /> <br />using an RD-65 unit. Expendables will be provided by UDWR. Rawinsondes <br /> <br /> <br />will be launched as needed for forecast and research purposes upon <br /> <br /> <br />request of NAWC at a frequency determin'ed by the Alert Level. During <br /> <br /> <br />STO RM research periods, rawinsondes wil I be launched at 3 hr intervals <br /> <br /> <br />at 0000, 0300, 0600 GMT, etc., for the duration of the STORM. Every <br /> <br /> <br />attempt will be made to launch a sonde prior to the start of a STORM <br /> <br /> <br />specifically during Alert Level 2. Rawinsonde data will be reduced by <br /> <br /> <br />NAWC in Beaver to the following variables: temperature, dew point, <br /> <br /> <br />pressure, altitude and wind velocity. These variables will. be available <br /> <br /> <br />at all significant levels up to the tropopause or 300 mb, whichever is <br /> <br /> <br />lower. Data reduction in real-time will 'be attempted. A skew T-Iog p <br /> <br /> <br />plot of the data will also be produced in Beaver, as needed. <br /> <br /> <br />d. Precipitation data. Precipitation data will be collected at <br /> <br /> <br />eight sites with Belfort recording gages. Although the gage charts will <br /> <br /> <br />accommodate seven days of data they will be changed after every STORM. <br /> <br /> <br />The gages will be checked for proper oper'ation then and any adjustments <br /> <br /> <br />to the gages will be made so they will operate properly during the next <br /> <br /> <br />STORM. North American Weather Consultants personnel will be responsible <br /> <br /> <br />for attending to the gages. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />-25- <br />
