John Horel Receives the AMS Francis W. Reichelderfer Award

Dr. John Horel has won the Francis W. Reichelderfer Award from the American Meteorological Society. This award is given in recognition of distinguished contributions to the provision of operational environmental services to the public. John wanted everyone to know that while nominally this award is attributed to an individual (in this case him), it is truly is a reflection of the efforts of everyone involved with MesoWest- current and past. The award is a very public acknowledgement of the impact of what everyone affiliated with MesoWest has been doing for operational applications. The official presentation of the medal will be made during the 96th Annual Meeting of the American Meteorological Society which will be held in New Orleans from January 10 through 14, 2016.
