TWISTEX Deployment

Latest update from Tim Samaras indicates that TWISTEX will be active beginning Wednesday, and continuing until the trough pattern breaks down. This means an extended period of chasing along the high plains from Wednesday through at least Friday, with the potential to continue chasing into early next week. I will be taking the trip down to Ames tomorrow night, leaving Ames for extreme southwest Nebraska early Wednesday morning.

I've been dealing with computer issues today, backlight on my laptop seems to be failing. So no good forecast update for today, however, tomorrow will feature a nice forecast update for Wednesday and Thursday chases.

You can keep up to date on the latest fielding status updates from TWISTEX on the www.twistex.org website.
