Had the honor of launching the weather balloon for upper air data collection in NOAA Boise NWS Boise. A radiosonde is a battery-powered instrument package attached to a weather balloon that measures atmospheric pressure, temperature, humidity, and wind speed as it ascends. Transmitting real-time data via radio to ground stations. The upper air data is crucial for input into weather models and useful for predicting severe damal dumeels. The radiosonde flight can last for more than two hours. During this time, the balloon can ascend to heights exceeding 35 km and drift over 200 km from the launch point. Throughout the journey, the radiosonde experiences extreme atmospheric conditions, including temperatures as low as -92°C and air pressures that are only a fraction of those at Earth’s surface. When the balloon has expanded beyond its elastic limit (20-25 feet in diameter) and bursts, the radiosonde returns to Earth via a small parachute. This slows its descent, minimizing the danger to life and property.

Appreciate the sensible reply given by IMD, Thank you. 1. To clarify media takes my quote from my tweets / fb posts. I avoid coming in TV to the extent possible. This all press knows. 2. State and Central Government or whoever it maybe if they ask me about a weather update i say my view to them. 3. I dont tweet on politics in my tweet or fb posts and I strictly maintain my tweets to weather. I always put stats and number for the last 10 years. 4. Lastly even our mobile app, FB, google, evano international stations they all update about our local weather. Namma ooru aalu naan, i am free to say about weather till public expects it. 5. The moment i feel, my updates are not required by public i will stop. Weather blogging used to be fun and not anymore. This hate by few is beyond understandable limits.
