AWIPS II testing at the Boulder WFO

On March 6, 2012 several members of the Unidata Program Center staff traveled to the National Weather Service's Weather Forecast Office (WFO) in Boulder, Colorado for an update on AWIPS II system testing. Nezette Rydell, Meteorologist in Charge at the Denver/Boulder WFO, provided background information on the AWIPS II operational testing process and current status. Meteorologist David Barjenbruch provided a demonstration of how AWIPS II will be used in the WFO. The visit was a part of the UPC's ongoing involvement with the AWIPS II project and efforts to make the system available to the university community once it is operational.

Do you use Unidata software packages? Do you love to write code? The Unidata Summer of Code internship program is looking for you!

The Unidata Summer of Code internship program will be hosting a graduate student intern from late May through August 2012. The USoC intern will be on-site at the Unidata Program Center in Boulder, Colorado, and will have 12 weeks to radically improve one of Unidata's software packages. Pick one you love and make it better! Pick one you're not in love with and reveal its true beauty.

The 92 Annual Meeting of the American Meteorological Society will take place 22-26 January 2012 in New Orleans, Louisiana. The submission deadline for many abstracts is 8 August, 2011. See the Call for Papers for details.

The theme of the 2012 AMS Annual Meeting is "Technology in Research and Operations." This theme will address the profound impact technology has had and will have on research, operations, the business of our environmental sciences, and the public. Technology advancements have greatly lowered the human suffering and loss of life in the United States and around the world from the deadly and costly effects of extreme weather and ecological disasters.

Unidata community members may be especially interested in participating in the 28th Conference on Interactive Information Processing Systems (IIPS), held during the annual meeting. See the IIPS conference page for details.
