Background: These survivors are comprised mostly of scientists, meteorologists and radio technicians. They were the first on the air after the Ruin and have remained a stable influence throughout the metro area. Most communities rely on their weather reports to avoid radioactive- and biologically-contaminated rain. They run a radio program every four hours for a half hour, providing the whole D.C. area with information about weather trends, bio-contaminants, news and fallout areas. They have set up several weather stations in friendly communities and use these to determine weather trends, fallout locations and drifting bio-contaminants.
