7/23/14 11:30 am Carlton Complex - Carlton Zone Launches Weather Balloon

Incident meteorologists launch a weather balloon  to track an incoming weather system that could affect the safety of firefighters.  A storm system is coming from the south with potentially, high winds, lightning, hail and rain.  The rain could cause debris flows that could endanger engines and ground crews so meteorologists track such systems and inform crews by radio.
