Mike U. reviewing GR2 Analyst 3D enhanced reflectivity/SRV (storm-relative velocity) images of the massive destructive supercell with a tornado intensity timeline. Very cool stuff!!

Crowd gathering around the TIV.

Looking inside the TIV.

Me sitting in the TIV-- a bit awkward since there was a sharp ledge on the inside that made for an uncomfortable drop-off.

Posing with the TIV. It's not too often you get to stand next to a 13 ton hunk of steel with a weather station & hydraulic claws!
