Forecasters receive training on weather instruments
First Lt. Rob Curry, 14th Student Squadron, conducts training on maintenance checks and cleaning for a Tactical Meteorological Equipment-53 Sensor with 14th Operations Support Squadron Weather Flight members April 5 at Columbus Air Force Base, Mississippi. The TMQ-53 Sensor's capabilities include the tracking of wind speeds, airfield pressure, visibility, precipitation and altimeter settings. The weather readings are put into a weather model to help predict weather patterns and are used in deployed environments for daily reports to aircrews preparing for missions.
