The Pacific Northwest experienced a memorable series of storms in late Oct. 2021 as several low-pressure systems rolled in from the northeast Pacific Ocean. One of the systems was classified by meteorologists as a “bomb cyclone”, meaning that its central pressure (an indication of storm strength) had dropped particularly rapidly in a short time period. At its minimum pressure (highest strength), the system was reported by the National Weather Service to have had the lowest pressure of a system over the northeastern Pacific Ocean since reliable observations began in 1974. The system was notable

Document Description

To address how NASA data can enable support of operations within the transportation and logistical sectors, the NASA Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Mission Applications Team, in collaboration with the Aerosols, Clouds, Convection and Precipitation (ACCP) Study Applications Impact Team (AIT), organized the virtual 2020 NASA GPM-ACCP Transportation and Logistics Workshop

2021 PMM Science Team Meeting

Dates
Location
Virtual (Microsoft Teams)

The meeting is by invitation to Precipitation Measurement Mission (PMM) Science Team members and specified affiliates.

Due to the Delta variant and rising numbers of COVID cases, as well as the fact that only a relatively small number of team members were expected to attend the meeting in Arizona in person, our science team meeting will switch to a virtual format this year.  
 
The dates will remain the same, Monday, October 18 through Friday, October 22. All times will be Eastern Daylight Savings time.
