Abstract

Meteorological data gathered for the launching of the 20401B Assault Breaker, Missile Number 0004, Round Number M2A1 is presented in tabular form. Meteorological data were recorded and reduced by the White Sands Meteorological Team. The data were obtained by the following methods: Surface--Standard surface observations include pressure, temperature (deg C), relative humidity, dew point (C), density (gm/cu m), wind direction and speed, and cloud cover were made at the LC-33 Met Site at T-O minutes, and at the Jallen Met Site at T-30, T-O and T+30 minutes. Anemometer data were provided from an existing pole-mounted and tower-mounted anemometer at LC-33. Upper Air--Low level wind data were obtained from RAPTS T-9 pibal observation at LC0-33 2760 meters.
