• Description:
  The 2022 Aviation Weather Testbed (AWT) Summer Experiment took place 13–16 September at the Aviation Weather Center (AWC) in Kansas City, Missouri, fully in-person for the first time since 2019. Participants (Fig. 1) included operational forecasters from AWC, National Weather Service (NWS) Weather Forecast Offices and Center Weather Service Units, developers from the Earth System Research Laboratory (ESRL), National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL), Environmental Modeling Center (EMC), and Weather Prediction Center (WPC), and one private sector meteorologist from Southwest Airlines. Furthermore, a meeting of central region meteorologists-in-charge, an Operations Proving Ground (OPG) test, and a visit from new NWS Director, Ken Graham, all within the same building created a palpable buzz throughout the week.
