The purpose of this Meeting Planning Guide is to provide information to assist AMS volunteers and AMS staff who, working together in close collaboration, plan standalone meetings organized by members of the AMS Commission on the Weather, Water and Climate Enterprise (CWWCE), its Boards, and their Committees. The focus is on standalone meetings, and not on meetings that occur as part of the AMS Annual Meeting, as those meetings differ in several fundamental aspects from standalone meetings. Please note this guide is in need of revision.
