Vortex 2, Here I Come

Posted on 19:54 by Unknown
Well, it appears that I'm heading out Sunday to meet up with the Vortex 2 team for Monday. Judging by the SPC outlook, we may have some action on Monday in Oklahoma. If you do not know what Vortex 2 is, here's a link: http://www.vortex2.org/home/

Also, here's a picture I snagged from Kristin Kulman (@wxkristin) on Twitter of some of the Vortex 2 Armada during their down time:


While getting some cool video of storms will be a big plus, I'm interested in the scientific approach they are taking to learn more about tornadoes. I'm going to be getting interviews, seeing their equipment, looking over their analysis, and seeing what they are learning about storms and tornadoes. It should be a really cool  and informative piece to show on the news... if all goes well.

I'll keep you posted on my Twitter Feed.
