EWP daily briefing... 5/27/2010

During the weather briefing we showed the NSSL-WRF lightning threat and simulated satellite imagery since it seemed as though the NSSL-WRF was handling the weather pattern fairly well today. The decision was made to focus over the DC area since there is a slight risk and severe thunderstorm watch out at the time of the briefing, as well as the DCLMA for pseudo-GLM demonstrations. Unfortunately it looks as though the lightning threat decreases fairly rapidly as the storms move south towards the DCLMA network according to the NSSL-WRF lightning threat output, but we hope that we will be able to capture some information.
