We love meteorology and we were sure we knew the answers to this one. Boy were we wrong! Took a bit more research but we got it! TFTC!

A quick grab this morning. This puzzle gave me fits, too. I had to contact a previous finder for a tip. This cache is also my find for day three of Streak Week.

I spent a while on this puzzle. I eventually contacted a previous finder and they thought that J was wrong and perhaps should be: J=Z+W+V.
With that change I got a happy checker and a quick find at the final.
Thanks for all the puzzles. Cheers.

I didn't remember how many times I reworked this puzzle until I finally got it. I think I still have something wrong but the checker okayed my solution. I was out today and decided to stop for a look. I found the final without any trouble.
