SPC has issued a Moderate Risk for SE Colorado and the TX/OK panhandles. HRRR is indicating early initiation in SE CO and a later show in SW KS and the panhandles.
Other notes from the discussion:
- 2345 and 0015 are GOES-R gaps (0015 is calibration, 2345 is full-disk, which happens every three hours). Otherwise the data come in every 15 minutes. 0Z is a bad time to start looking at CI products
- Due to lots of cirrus over the area, the CI products may not see too much use today. However, expect GOES to operate in rapid-scan mode due to the Moderate Risk.
