  3. Where was the Air Weather Service? • “In 1946, with the roll-up of Allied Military Forces, including their weather services and weather communications facilities, the availability of weather observations decreased to a record low. In early 1947, little improvement was apparent. But with a gradual improvement in communications, the re-establishment of upper air reports and the return of the 514th Reconnaissance Squadron on 1 September 1947, a reasonable amount of weather data became available for analysis.” (from Report on Post-Analysis of Typhoons in the Western North Pacific, 1947. Air Weather Service Technical Report 105-42. Washington, D.C.: Headquarters, Air Weather Service, 1949)
