STATUS: Down, but an IOP is likely on Friday 13 April.

The next major wave to impact the SE US will be moving into the area on Friday. We expect conditions possibly supportive of tornadic supercells or a QLCS Friday afternoon and night, but the location is not very certain. We will probably use the Monroe LA subdomain, but because this is the last possible mission day for the NOAA P-3 aircraft in VORTEX-SE this year, we may set up an ad hoc subdomain further we toward Shreveport if that’s where the weather takes us.
