Day 4 Wrap Up Report

As the week goes on (no pun intended), the threat for severe wx continues to decline.

We were assigned the Pendleton CWA today. The LAP product panel earlier in the day didn't look too impressive with regard to severe thunderstorms. There were a few ordinary thunderstorms that popped up and many were terrain driven today.

What I took away from the day today is that when there is sparse radar coverage in the CWA (i.e. out west), the GOES 1 minute imagery really helps to detect the towering CU in the region.
