What a day! Started wit a 2 hour briefing with the Director of the National Storm Prediction Office learning all about the process of collecting, analyzing, and, if needed, issuing watches and warnings concerning tornadoes, severe thunderstorms and rainfall, flash flooding, and winter weather. Saw some awesome video of destructive weather.
You know those movies where the killer is in the basement and the young college girl starts walking down the basement steps to see why the lights went out, and you are screaming, "Don't go down to the basement!!!!"
Well we were doing that as the idiots were driving into the flash flood waters because they thought they could get across. Wicked cool!
Then we took off to the National Weather Station in Topeka, Kansas to watch the deployment of the daily weather balloon which provides updated temperature and pressure before returning to stately Wayne Manor. Hurricane Center briefing still to come!!!
