Activities of the Special Weather Advisory Service. Operation Tumbler-Snapper.

Abstract

Certain weather advisory functions were delegated to the Group H-6 (LASL) Weather Section during test activities at the Nevada Proving Grounds. The techniques utilized in performing these functions are outlined, and the actual advisories, forecasts, and analyses issued are made a matter of record. There is some discussion as to the consistency of certain phases of the advisory services and indications of future study and amplifications of the results. (Author)
