Abstract

In this paper, requirements to the meteorological observational network density and accuracy of measurement of meteorological variables, which are necessary to enhance the effectiveness and lead time of the dangerous weather phenomena forecasts, are considered. An effective technically and economically feasible way of development of the specialized automatic meteorological network based on the existing and consistently developing cell phone network is proposed.
