Flying a rippin LLJ (Low Level Jet) along a boundary today looking for landspouts whilst CloudRazor is up there. Testing high windspeed and battery performance at 4C. Brrrr, drone did better than me…. brutal at the surface. teamdomcanada

Met with Dan Madden this evening, testing teamdomcanada 's new CloudRazor #3 and also had CloudRazor #1 out . Here's a parachute with sensor setup, deployment and the view from 6600ft. We sampled a veering wind profile throughout the height changing from S -> N -> W. Due to

It’s a Stanley park kind of day today! Finding crayfish and relaxing, waiting for the next severe weather to come up. teamdomcanada #abwx #neverstopchasing

Weather is three-dimensional... often hard to appreciate from the ground or a 2D weather map.  CloudRazor1 checking out above an LLJ (Low Level Jet) at over 4000 ft.  This is a sub 250g drone in Canada. teamdomcanada Reed Timmer, PhD #abwx

Big time blowing dust right now east of Innisfail, Alberta! Strong winds are picking up lots of dirt from fields and carrying it long distances. #abstorm

Numerous sailboats overturned on Lake Chestermere when caught in unexpected gust front from adjacent thunderstorms. Note also the airborne dust. #abstorm 7:35 pm

Weather models rarely match what’s happening in the atmosphere, leading to poor predictions for severe weather. Here’s the model and sounding (taken by our SkyFall sensor) on a typical day. In Canada for example, real balloon soundings are sparse, many ground based weather

In case you didn’t get that, well, its a little windy in Alberta tonight. This is East of Camrose. High speed westerlies at the surface and a high speed Northerly LLJ (Low Level Jet) 300m above that. Take care, these are dangerous winds and can push larger vehicles off the
