External DisseminationTeam Composition • Suzanne Lenihan (NWS/OST) • Bobby Jones (NWS/OCIO) • Rich Jesuroga (OAR/FSL) • Herb White (NWS/OCWWS)
External DisseminationVision Making Climate, Water, and Weather Information Available to Everyone When They Want, Where They Want, and Persons at Risk of Hazards Receive Timely Alerts
External DisseminationWhat We Do Today TV Radio Internet Private Weather Companies NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE 121 Weather Forecast Offices Issue Local Forecasts & Warnings National Centers for Environmental Prediction Model Simulations Climate & Seasonal Outlooks Aviation & Marine Forecasts Storm & Tornado Prediction Hurricane Tracks River Forecasts Hydropower, Flood warnings Irrigation, River Navigation Observations Radar Network, Satellites, Weather Balloons, Ground-level observations at airports, Aircraft, Lightning Network, Data Buoys, Stream Gauge Network, 11,000 Volunteer daily-data collectors, Thousands of Volunteer storm spotters
External DisseminationKey Gaps • Accessibility and Availability of Weather, Water & Climate Information • Useful Formats • Public/Private Partnerships • Data Volume and Product Count • Complex Network Architecture • Security • Aging Technology (Systems Reliability) • Increasing Maintenance Cost
