[we] probably handled 15 more departures yesterday . . . because they were better able to see and hit the holes using the WARP presentation.

  3. Integrated Terminal Weather System Provides the terminal with weather prediction and hazardous weather detection ability to help sustain capacity in all weather conditions FY03 Installations Planned deployments for FY04: Boston, Denver, Charlotte, Minneapolis

  4. Corridor Integrated Weather System • A concept demonstration of weather forecast and precipitation tools for traffic management in highly congested area, providing timely, accurate forecasting and common situation awareness across many domains. • FY03 achievements: • Enhanced the 2-hour Regional Convective Weather Forecast to include Storm Growth and Decay • Expanded number of ASR-9 radar connections
