Daily Update – June 9

INSTRUMENT STATUS: All good.

WEATHER INFO: Today will be quite dry with some high clouds. Winds are predicted to turn SW before veering to the NW late this afternoon. Light and variable winds are expected overnight and a good surface inversion is expected. Tomorrow will continue to be very dry. Winds will continue to be weak tomorrow morning before increasing in the afternoon. SW/W winds are expected in the late morning/early afternoon but models disagree on the timing. They will veer NW after that.

PREVIOUS DAY OPS: Recorded our lat/lon with a highly accurate GPS this morning. A Supersonde IOP is in progress to capture the evening transition (will launch at 3pm, 9pm, and 3am) . CU and ARL plan to fly tonight and ND plan to release extra sondes as well.

SITE PHOTOS: None

NEXT DAY OPS: If all goes well, may have another EET IOP tomorrow.
