Description:"The National Meteorological Center (NMC) plays a unique and essential role in the public weather services of the United States, one of technically guiding the forecast process from a national level. For instance, the process that ends with a weathercast on commercial television or radio began at NMC a few hours beforehand. Activities in several disparate functional areas support the processing tasks at NMC, and the training and experience of personnel are correspondingly diverse. The three major areas of specialization are - meteorologists and meteorological technicians, research scientists, and computer scientists and operators, and electronic technicians. These specialties provide fairly clean lines along which to erect divisional walls, with a good balance between internal homogeneity and size of primary organizational unit. With some important exceptions, NMC is organized this way"--Overview.
