GOES Winds Detecting Strong Shear Aloft!

The GOES winds in the lower left corner of this 4 panel image shows 718 mb level winds of 14 knots, and 275 mb level winds at 77 knots, in north central Wallowa County at 2150 UTC. This would give approximate deep layer shear (in the 720 mb to 275 mb layer) of 63 knots. Pretty strong shear, and a great way to get the latest shear values across this area! JJW
