...REMARKS...
Forecast will be used for the 6th
Annual San Diego County Wild Land
Fire Exercise,  being held at
Viejas Indian Reservation. A
medical study on the effects of
hydration and heat stress is being
conducted, so need hourly forecast
tabs. Also a unmanned aerial
vehicle DRONE will be flown to
10000 ft MSL as part of an
experiment by San Diego State
University, so winds aloft are
also needed. Two helicopters are
being used to do water drops on
the simulated fire line. If
surface temperatures are expected
over 90F, please include temp/Dew
point every 1000 feet in degrees
Celsius for computing Density
Altitude. IMET Rob Balfour will be
in around 0600 PDT to work up the
forecast and make copies before
departing office.
