Aviation Weather Testbed PG All Hands update 7 July 2014

Important note… Possible changes to the NWS/AWC service requirements in the coming months… Aviation Weather Statement production as guidance for TFMs at the Command Center Elimination of the DOB text FAs, resulting in increasing reliance on the graphical AIRMETs Hosting NWS director, NCEP director, NOAA Deputy Under- Secretary for Operations, FAA Next Gen Chief Scientist, and others next Monday (July 14 th ) to discuss these changes Will be discussing how to better position the AWT and AWC in the R2O/O2R loop How can we build a ‘Weather Ready NAS’

2014 demonstration status Issues, successes, and the plans for the 2014 Summer Experiment in August

Issues… Delayed period II start due to ops transition hiatus CM approval still pending, though tentatively approved for the GeoColor and Cloud Heights Issues with LDM connection preventing GeoColor transition… Made the decision to push back the evaluation period. Will now be running mid/late-June through mid-September (instead of starting mid-May) Disk space in the testbed/ops Experimental servers running at 90% capacity, ops at 80% Working with IT to get more space… Staffing situation Bids went out for leads Most likely will be at least partially internal Bids went out for CSIG forecasters and also a TDM!

Successes… AWT Ingests Simulated visible imagery MODIS/VIIRS dust imagery Evaluation Period II so far… Nearcasting/Synthetic IR and CCFP CSIG and CI/CTC/PGLM PGLM/CI evaluation with SPoRT NAMs and Convective Toolkit Three day eval period during the last week of July. SE14 planning… Real-time examples…

June 27 th, 1700 UTC Synthetic IR over ZME

June 30 th 0000Z– Simulated VIS and observed fronts over Missouri

Summer Experiment 2014 Four mock desks: C&V 1: CONUS Focus on 0-4 hour period and the value of observational tools Tools like the FLS, ntmicro, simulated VIS, simulated fog difference, etc. C&V 2: Tropical Same tools as mentioned above, but testing skill over water Will look at convection as a backup Convective AWS 1: ‘Experimental’ Convective toolkit products Convective AWS 2: ‘Operational’ Will be manned by TDM’s (possibly from the WET); comparing skill to ‘experimental’ desk

Summer Experiment 2014 Particpants: CWSUs… confirmed 1 from WR, 2 from SR (ZTL and ZAB), and hopefully 2 from CR (funding dependent) Perhaps some collaboration with SPoRT here???? NAMs… will have our new NAM, and possibly the NAM MIC FAA WET team… will be having a simultaneous meeting and so will be joining us at various times. Will possibly help out with the Convective AWS 2 (‘Operational’) desk. WFOs… will have aviation focal point forecasters (2 from WR, 2 from ER) AAWU

AWIPS-2 update -NUCAPS… in the works, but correct configurations needed -The latest upgrade erased and broke most everything in our systems… and as it turns out, it wasn’t the correct one anyway O.o This resulted in: -Operational satellite imagery via dbnet has been temporarily turned off -SBN data feed were unstable, though that has since been taken care of for the most part -So, the AWC lost this round… but round 2 is already beginning -The correct upgrade will be installed within a week or so, and should hopefully take care of our issues (or at least some of them)

Questions?
