010925 Radar and Sounding Operation Status

The radar operated continuously without problems. A quiet day for 
convection.  A few echos to our east (50-150 km), otherwise mostly 
clear around the ship.  The 12Z sonde did not return winds above the 
surface.  One trend in the sonde data was for the erosion of westerly 
flow in the lower-mid troposphere throughout the day.  Also, the mean 
mixed layer mixing ratio's tended to be slightly lower (16-17 gm/kg) 
compared to many previous soundings.
