Dear Reader,
This
Newsletter was first introduced in 1982, at the request of the Commission for
Basic Systems (CBS), with the objective of providing World Weather Watch
Centres with urgent notifications and a summary of the latest
operational information on the World Weather Watch and Marine
Meteorological Services. In
December 2001 the CBS Management Group approved the electronic distribution
of the Newsletter thus
enabling operational centres to receive up-to-date information on a near
real-time basis.
This
Newsletter is published at the end of each month and is disseminated
free
of charge through our on-line service.
Check our
home page for the most recent issue, alternatively, complete the subscription
form (if you havn’t already done so) and we will contact
you when it is made available.
We
hope that this Newsletter has been of service to you.
Should you feel that we did not meet with your requirements
please contact us.
