1982年9月15日和16日，从两架NOAA WP-3D飞机上释放了欧米茄落差探空仪(ODW)，用于测量黛比飓风中心1000公里范围内对流层中低层的环境风场。观测结果以标准格式编码，并在业务预报截止日期之前从飞机传输到国家飓风中心(NHC)和国家气象中心(NMC)。奇风清楚地表明了西风带中对流层槽的位置和强度，这是影响黛比移动的主要天气尺度特征。9月16日，下降探测仪还在槽的北部发现了一个较小规模的截止低点。16日中午至17日中午，中心位于黛比西北偏北约500公里处的截止低压影响了飓风的移动。ODW向NHC提供了及时的信息，这些信息被主观地用来确定黛比的官方预测。那个胖子..。
Abstract Omega dropwindsondes (ODWs) were released from two NOAA WP-3D aircraft to measure the environmental wind field in the middle and lower troposphere within 1000 km of the center of Hurricane Debby on 15 and 16 September 1982. The observations were coded in standard formats and transmitted from the aircraft to the National Hurricane Center (NHC) and the National Meteorological Center (NMC) before operational forecast deadlines. The ODW winds clearly indicated the location and strength of a midtropospheric trough in the westerlies that was the major synoptic-scale feature affecting Debby's motion. On 16 September, the dropwindsondes also identified a smaller scale cutoff low in the northern part of the trough. The cutoff low that was centered about 500 km to the north northwest of Debby affected the hurricane's motion from midday on the 16th to midday on the 17th. The ODWs provided NHC with timely information that was used subjectively in determining the official forecasts of Debby's track. The poten...
