Planes and Weather

http://www.sciencedaily.com/videos/2007/1209-planes_improve_weather.htm

this video talks about how planes can be useful for predicting the weather. they gather data from a device called "TAMDAR". this device detects moisture in the air which helps predict storms and precipitation. not only does TAMDAR detect moisture it also detects humidity, temperature, ice, turbulence and wind which again helps meteorologists predict the weather.
