Matt and Martin Hagen from DLR did a radiometer calibration today (04/27) at around 11am. We plan to do one more calibration over the WE, because we will likely have to shut down the CLAMPS instruments tomorrow to make some changes in the power supply.
The plan is to add a second line to the lower orange site to have two circuits each 20 amps. One circuit would then accommodate CLAMPS, the second circuit is needed for Julie Lundquist’s WindCube_v1 lidar and the tether sonde (TLS) winch. Once this change in the power supply is done, we can hopefully also run the heater for the MWR.
The weather is still quite nice but it is cooler today. We had a lot of clouds yesterday but no precipitation. Tomorrow there is a good chance of rain later in the day.
