Editor's Notes
- #2 Intro, relate story on good forecast enabling you to make critical meetingHighlight improvement in speed, quantity, and accuracy of data. We wrap this up at the end with a slide that shows how we are doing against these goals and put a ribbon on the briefing package. Also highlight international cooperation. Eumetsat, who will brief right after you, is a key partner supplying the data from the mid-morning orbit and we are working together to better define q joint system for the future. Working together we can find more ways to supply even better support and do it within ever more constrained resources.
