INTRODUCTION

19320A MLRS, Missile Number FV3-06, FV3-16 and FV3-24, Round Numbers 479/AT2-43,480/AT2-44 and 481/AT2-45, were launched from LC-33, White Sands Missile Range(WSMR), New Mexico, at 0845:01, 0845:07 and 0845:11 MDT, 20 July 83. The schedullaunch times were 0845:00, 0845:04.5 and 0845:09 MDT.

DISCUSSION

"eteorological data were recorded and reduced by the White Sands fleteorologiTeam, Atmospheric Sciences Laboratory (ASL), White Sands Missile Range, New. MexicoThe data were obtained by the following methods:

1. Observations

a. Surface

(1) Standard surface observations to include nressure, temperature(OC), relative humidity, dew point (OC), density (gm/m3), Vind direction and speedand cloud cover were made at the LC-33 Met Site and T-0 Minutes.

(2) Anemomenter data were provided from existing pole-mounted ahd tomounted anemometers at LC-33. Monitor of wind speed and direction from one anemowas also provided In the launch control room.

b. Upper Air

(1) Low level wind data were obtained from Pilot-balloon observationsat:

SITE AND ALTITUDE

LC-33 1750 MetersSMR 2000 Meters

(2) Air structure data (rawinsonde) were collected at the follow"et Sites.
