Good Things Come to Those Who Wait

Anybody who is even a casual viewer of The Weather Channel knows that Adam and the Vortex2 team finally intercepted a tornado in Wyoming on Friday. It was a perfect storm, as the researchers were able to witness the entire evolution of the tornado - from the formation right through to it's dissipation. They were also relieved that it occurred on an open range, as no people were injured and no structures sustained damage. I understand that the U of M/Texas Tech sticknet crew raced ahead of the supercell after the initial tornado touchdown, and were able to experience more of the storm's wrath. Adam will be writing the next update for the U of M Vortex2 blog (see sidebar), so check that out in the coming days. I'm sure he will be posting plenty of pictures, and possibly even some video as well.
