Lightning strikes in the Hindu Kush basin near Bagram Air Field, Afghanistan, April 20. The 455th Expeditionary Operations Support Squadron, combat weather team, can predict lightning and thunder with the use of a Tactical Meteorological Observing System. This technology allows the weather team to issue a lightning warning on BAF to ensure the security and safety of all personnel. "It is unusual to have lightning strike within five nautical miles within the basin of Bagram, but on average there are 22 recorded strikes throughout the fiscal year," said Master Sgt. James Lee, non-commissioned officer in charge of the CWT.
