Copies of the logs will be made at the end of the project. Otherwise, soundings will be taken at the old TI building on Highway 60. Soundings should be taken to document the inflow environment of precipitating systems. Occasionally soundings will be taken during stratiform precipitation and to document the post convective environment. But a 3 hour time period will be considered more typical.
Safety is an utmost concern.
No datum is worth the risk of injury to a person. Soundings will be collected using the NSSL system and copies of the flights will be made on PC disks and returned to the Lead Project Scientist at the earliest possible time. Mileage during deployment must be recorded. Occasionally soundings may be taken to aid in forecasting and to document the post-convective environment. One of the most important regions to document is the immediate inflow environment.
