In contrast to last week, the start of this week has come with some very active weather. A fresh batch of forecasters are quickly getting spun up on all of the experimental products as we look forward to another great week. Today, Shawn Smith (WFO Buffalo) and Michael Scotten (WFO Norman) are forecasting for the Davenport CWA, while Kevin Deitch (WFO Louisville) and Erica Grow (WUSA) are in the St. Louis CWA. Today’s shift will run from 11:45 to 7:45.
Forecasters will have access to a sector of GOES-14 1-minute imagery all week providing feedback on the utility of high temporal resolution imagery in a forecast environment.
