Shield of the Air Force Weather Agency
The
United States Air Force Weather Agency (
USAFWA or
AFWA) is the lead strategic
weather center of the
U.S. Air Force. AFWA enhances the combat capability of the
United States by delivering timely, accurate, and reliable environmental situational awareness worldwide to the Air Force, the
U.S. Army, joint warfighters, unified commands, the national intelligence community, and the
Secretary of Defense. The agency is currently based at
Offutt Air Force Base, near
Omaha, Nebraska.
AFWA fields high quality weather equipment and training to Air Force operational weather squadrons and combat weather teams at locations around the world. AFWA builds a comprehensive weather database of forecast, climatological, and space weather products. These products and services are exploited by the U.S. Department of Defense field commanders and decision makers for many military operations, contingency missions, and humanitarian relief efforts conducted by the United States.
