As Jim pointed cut yesterday, there wuld be discontinuities
in the free air because of the way turbulence acta, that is
the finite size of the eddys involved.
But I wouldn't expect
to have the big differences which are due to the big differences
in rain. When looking at the Thunderstorm Project reports,
where they have the very fine network of rain gauges, you remember the extreme grediants of rainfall in the rather mall
area that cocurred there.

These are the eastern Massachusetts resulte someone spoke about
the other day ~ showed a terrific variability of radioactivity
in a small eres, eastern Massachusetts -

On the ground.
WEXLER:
- expressed in terns of ocunts per liter of rain, as I wider~
stands now that indicated s terrific fine structure of thse
distribution of this aloud which is exactly what Jim Edinger
illustrated in the first slide ve have shown. And the thing
I'm at a loses at you understand, Will, is how you can with the
present network, open network, ever hope to get thie fins
structure that is shown up by means of the ground samples and
aleo from what you'd expect of Jim Edinger's arguaent.
So
therefore, if you can't get the fine structure, you have to
be content with getting scue crude approximation as to, say,
whether most of the activity is within layers likely to be
