IOP2 Update #2 9:25 AM Thur Mar 24

It’s fairly quiet here in N AL right now.  Patches of weak showers and rain.  Some of our special soundings show a very sharp stable layer just above 700 mb, and most of these showers are confined below that layer.  A few are poking above, which is a bit hard to explain.

Computer guidance is really jumping around this morning, portraying everything from a broken line of supercells with significant rotation, to a surging QLCS moving rapidly through the area this afternoon.  So we wait and see what the atmosphere has in store.

All systems are up and running… numerous soundings being obtained today.

Here’s the current reflectivity from the ARMOR radar:
