Today we touched on all three sensor groups: GOES-R, pGLM, and MRMS.  For the second day in a row, we were dogged by cirrus that significantly limited our use of the GOES-R data, though we did have a few occasions where we could see an Overshooting Top.

We started off with Nashville’s CWA in an attempt to observe total lightning, as well as Huntsville’s CWA.  As the storms left Nashville, we switched to Birmingham during the dinner break.

There were a number of good questions from the forecasters to Geoff, which I’ll defer to his blog entries [enter blog link once we get it].

Technical Issues of the Day :

• Archive Cases were running slow on the right ‘par’ machine.  Ben suggests it has to do with having so many products loaded (running multiple D2Ds) and the update needs to draw all those products at once slows the responsiveness
• tupelo continues to have issues with warnings.  We ignored the error and issued anyway.  We need to see if they actually show.
