Flight Summary (Non-Anvil Day: Flight 2)

Summary for June 24, 2000

Investigator: (None)

The following summary is from the notes that Jim Dye and Eric Defer put together. Probably early in 2001 (before the May/June 2001 Field Campaign).

E fields reported in the summaries below are based on the old matrix for determination of the three components of the field. The new matrix provided in April 2001 reduces the negative values of Ez as much as 40 to 60%. So the values reported herein may be too large. Positions are reported herein as (X,Y) coordinates relative to the WSR74-C radar.

The total concentrations of particles measured by the 2D-C probe are denoted as N30 (ie. concentration of particles >30 microns which is heavily weighted towards smaller particles). N1 refers to the concentration of particles >1mm size, ie. the larger particles. Radar plots were available for only a few of the last summaries we prepared (June 4, 6, and 11). For other days some of the realtime radar plots were utilized but need to be verified.
