ing lecture, that I should like to have more con- 
nection between the different scale ranges from 
micro over meso to macro scale. In my termi- 
nology this means from the cloud particles to 
the individual clouds and from there to the pre- 
cipitating systems as seen in the synoptic scale. 
During most of the discussions on radar studies, 
which were quite admirable in themselves, I 
could not determine what the general synoptic 
situation looked like. I think it is important to 
have this in papers. 
DISCUSSION 
Dr. Walter Hitschfeld—I want to know what 
Mr. Todd meant by the plumes that were con- 
tinually coming from the island toward the 
coast? 
Mr. C. J. Todd—Well, they were streams of 
echo, like smoke plumes. But they did not start 
at the island; they would line up in straight 
lines of precipitation and the extrapolation of 
these lines would point right back to the ridges 
on the island.
