...and we are off!




















Goodbye Mountains...Hello Great Plains!

(posted by Karen Kosiba)

After 4 days (OK--it really has been several months...) of frantic preparation, the CSWR crew is ready to get out of Dodge (Boulder).

It is time to put our systems to the test--radars, mobile mesonets, radios, tracking, etc.--before our first official mission.

By the way, it snowed again today!

  2. Arkansas actually is outside of the Vortex2 domain. Too many trees, too many hills, and a less than optimal road network make it difficult to get good scientific data.
    Still in OK...
