  • THE WEATHER and CIRCULATION of AUGUST 1955' Including the Climatologicalbackground for Hurricanes Connie and Diane JEROME NAMIAS and CARLOS R
    AUGUST1955 MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW 163 THE WEATHER AND CIRCULATION OF AUGUST 1955' Including the Climatological Background for Hurricanes Connie and Diane JEROME NAMIAS AND CARLOS R. DUNN Extended Forecast Section, U. S. Weather Bureau, Washington. D. C. ABSTRACT The general circulation during August 1955 was characterized by an abnormally contracted circumpolar westerly whirl and an associated northward displacement of the belt of subtropical anticyclones and subtropical easterlies. While this zonal circulation was similar in many respects to thatof the preceding July andled to a pattern of temper- ature anomaly over the United States similar to July's, the rainfall differed tremendously, particularly over the Northeast where flood-producing rains associated with hurricanes Connie and Diane replaced a regime of drought. The differences between July and August are accounted for by westward displacements of the centers of action coupled withmarkedly similar anomalous zonal circulations (i.e., displaced poleward). Theearly onset of the hurricane season is attributed to the premature northward displacement of the subtropical belt of anticyclones. The unprecedented precipitation associated with hurricanes Connie and Diane is believed to be partially related to injection of abnormally moist tropical air from an appreciably warmer than normal sea surface. The 1955 crop of hurricanes contained two early season Climatic fluctuations of shortand long durationin storms, Connie andDiane, which will furnish ample temperature, precipitation, andother

  • Basic Radio Propagation Predictions for February 1956: Three Months In
    ^ % 3 msb Basic Radio Propagation Predictions FOR FEBRUARY 1956 Three Months in Advance Issued November 1955 CRPL Series D Number 135 The Central Radio Propagation Laboratory The propagation of radio waves over long distances depends on their reflection from the ionosphere, the electri¬ cally conducting layers in the earth’s upper atmosphere. The characteristics of these layers are continually chang¬ ing. For regular and reliable communication, it is therefore necessary to collect and analyze ionospheric data from stations all over the world in order that predictions of usable frequencies between any two places at any hour can be made. During the war, the United States Joint Communications Board set up the Interservice Radio Propagation Laboratory at the National Bureau of Standards to centralize ionospheric work and predictions for the Armed Forces of the United States. On May 1, 1946, this activity returned to peacetime status as the Central Radio Propagation Laboratory of the National Bureau of Standards. Designed to act as a permanent centralizing agency for propagation predictions and studies, analogous in the field of radio to the reports of the Weather Bureau in the field of meteorology, the Central Radio Propagation Laboratory was established in cooperation with the many Government agencies vitally concerned with communication and radio propagation problems. These agencies are represented on an Interdepartment Coun¬ cil on Radio Propagation and Standards which assists in furthering the work of the Laboratory; included are the Departments of State, Army, Navy and Air Force, United States Information Agency, United States Coast Guard, Civil Aeronautics Administration and Federal Communications Commission. Observers have been designated by the Air Navigation Development Board, Interdepartment Radio Advisory Committee, United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, and United States Weather Bureau.
