Summary

Description

Greetings from Honolulu, Hawaii, from the crew of the NOAA Gulfstream IV jet and NOAA's Teacher in the Air!

During its recent Winter Storms Reconnaissance project for the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Prediction, the G-IV acquired atmospheric data from severe winter storms originating over the Pacific Ocean that will affect the continental United States, Hawaii, and Alaska. The data will help improve forecasts released 24 to 96 hours before a winter storm in support of NOAA's goal to serve society's needs for weather and water information.

Joining the G-IV crew on its February 24 mission was Jessica Schwarz, a seventh grade science and math teacher from West Hawaii Explorations Middle School in Kona, Hawaii. As a participant in the NOAA Teacher in the Air (TIA) Program, an offshoot of the NOAA Teacher at Sea Program, she wrote logs and lessons that correspond with the G-IV's research. Her work is posted on the NOAA Teacher at Sea Web site at www.teacheratsea.noaa.gov.
