OVERVIEW:
|
0850
Z |
Begin Microphysical Scanning,
Switching to MicroNear135: Switching
to 960 Hz PRF. Arturo driving MicroNear135 to capture initiation over the
GOC. 0900Z, Base reflectivity |
|
0930
Z |
Line
of strong cells right on the coastline 60-120 km NW of the radar. 0930Z, Base reflectivity |
|
1007
Z |
Shifted
clock-wise a little bit to keep them in the sector. 1000Z, Base reflectivity |
|
1030
Z |
End Microphysical Scanning, Switching
to ClimoNear: Storms are too spread out for sectors and the ones we are following up
close have weakened considerably. 1030Z, Base reflectivity |
