Contact us Forecasting Procedure In addition to his duties as officer-in-charge, Ralph shared with me the routine of producing forecasts and other information for Allied Air Headquarters. For this we plotted and analysed weather observations over an area extending from west to east from the longitude of Singapore to that of Fiji and from about latitude 20°N to about 40°S. As had been the case in Port Moresby, pilot balloon observations were represented on the chart using the 'snake' method of representation. We continued to suffer from a lack of knowledge of the behaviour of the atmosphere in low latitudes. In those days some progress was being made in developing an understanding of the mechanism of the atmosphere in higher northern hemisphere latitudes but there was little if any investigation of the atmosphere in low latitudes.

HURRICANES AND TROPICAL METEOROLOGY The summers of 1995 and 1996 were the most active consecutive hurricane seasons on record. Media coverage was intense. Watching a hurricane on television is abstract, but actually surviving a hurricane landfall is all too realas the citizens of Miami discoverd when Hurricane Andrew came booming ashore in 1992. Andrew the most expensive hurricane to strike the United Statesdestroyed 27 billion dollars worth of property in this community, but killed only 15 people by direct force of wind and water. Human casualties were extraordinarily light because the storm caused little flooding in populated areas and the National Hurricane Center forecast the storm track accurately. Good forecasts offer both motivation to act and time to prepare for the event. Intelligent preparation can reduce human and material losses, even though most property and many people cannot be evacuated from the path of the storm. Hurricanes can be deadly and expensive. Before the 1940s when warnings were almost non-existent, hurricanes caused the deaths of thousands of people in the U.S. Even now in developing nations, where warnings may not always be timely or accurate and evacuations are difficult, hundreds of thousands of people died in a single tropical cyclone landfall as recently as 1970. As warnings in the U.S. improved, loss of life declined but monetary losses continued to increase. According to the National Climate Data Center, hurricanes caused six of the eleven weather disasters in the 1980s and early 1990s that cost the U.S. economy more than a billion dollars.

Meteorological Training Introduction: The scope of work of the Hong Kong Observatory has expanded considerably through the years. It now provides weather forecasting, tropical cyclone warning and various other meteorological services to meet the needs of shipping, aviation, industries and the general public. It is also involved in a wide range of other activities such as seismology, physical oceanography, radiation monitoring and assessment and the determination of the official time in Hong Kong. Training in these subjects, which are specialized in nature, is not normally available in local institutions. The department therefore organizes a comprehensive training programme of its own. Course on Meteorology of Southeast Asia (3 weeks) The Course on Meteorology of Southeast Asia aims at providing the candidates with the necessary knowledge on the meteorology of Southeast Asia and in particular, Hong Kong to prepare them for operational forecasting duties in the Central Forecasting Office of the Hong Kong Observatory. Local forecasting techniques and operational procedures will be emphasized. Qualifications for enrolment: Degree-holder of a science or engineering subject or WMO Class III meteorological personnel with equivalent knowledge in Physics and Mathematics, and at least 2 years relevant experience or equivalent and proficiency in written and spoken English.

1955-65: Establishment of Atmospheric General Circulation Modeling Early General Circulation Models The General Circulation Research Section (later GFDL) UCLA Dept. of Meteorology Lawrence Livermore Laboratories ... References In the mid-1950s, the weather models used by forecasters were still regional or continental (vs. hemispherical or global) in scale. Calculations for numerical weather prediction were limited to what could be accomplished in a couple of hours on then-primitive digital computers. In addition, the time constraints of analog/digital data conversion and long-distance communication imposed limitations on the scale of operational weather forecasting. Yet for theoretical meteorologists unconcerned with real-time forecasting general circulation modeling became a kind of holy grail. Early General Circulation Models By mid-1955 Norman Phillips had completed a 2-layer, hemispheric, quasi-geostrophic computer model. Despite its primitive nature, Phillips's model is now often regarded as the first AGCM. As computer power grew, the need for simplifying assumptions (such as barotropy and quasi-geostrophy) diminished. Many individuals throughout the developed world, including Phillips, began experiments with primitive equation models in the late 1950s.

Weather: National Victoria NSW ACT ... Tasmania A Career in the Bureau of Meteorology as a Meteorologist A PROFILE OF THE BUREAU Australia's national weather service, the Bureau of Meteorology, provides forecasts and warnings to the public, the aviation industry, defence services, primary industry and many other specialist user groups. It also gathers and disseminates climatic data, provides consultative services and undertakes meteorological research. In support of these functions the Bureau operates extensive observation, communication and computer systems, and cooperates in the use of international satellite and communication systems. The Bureau has approximately 1410 staff employed throughout Australia and its Territories (including Antarctica). These staff are located at Head Office in Melbourne, at seven Regional Forecasting Centres (RFCs) in capital cities, at 14 Weather Service Offices (WSOs) at provincial airports and RAAF bases, and at 35 Observing Offices at other centres. THE WORK OF THE METEOROLOGIST There are approximately 350 meteorologists in the Bureau of Meteorology. Meteorologists are normally based at the Bureau's Head Office, situated in Melbourne, and at the seven Regional Offices located in all State capital cities and Darwin, with smaller numbers at other locations including Canberra and Townsville. Meteorologists working as forecasters, and in some other operational areas, work on a 7 day, 24 hour shift roster.
