INTRODUCTION

19305A HLRS , Missile Number 1144 , Round Number V-112

was launched from LC-33 , White Sands Missile Range (WSMR), New Mexico,

at 0900 NST on 07 Feb 80 The scheduled launch time was

0900 MST

DISCUSSION

Meteorological data were recorded and reduced by the White Sands MeteorologicalTeam. Atmospheric Sciences Laboratory (ASL), White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico.

The data were obtained by the following methods:

1. Observations

a. Surface

(1) Standard surface observations to include pressure, temperature

(°C), relative humidity, dew point (0C), density (gm/m3 ), Wind direction and speed,and cloud cover were made at the LC-33 Met Site at T-O minutes.

(2) Anemometer data were provided from existing pole-mounted and

i, tower-mounted anemometers at LC-33. Monitor of wind speed and direction from one

anemur eter was also provided in the launch control room.

b. Upper Air

(1) Low level wind data were obtained from RAPTS T-9 pibal observa-

tion at;

SITE AND ALTITUDE

LC-33 2 kmNick 2 km

(2) Air structure data (rawinsonde) were collected at the following

Met Sites. Data were collected from surface to 96.500 feet in

500-feet increments.
