    The third science flight of wrapped up earlier today, with the P-3 and ER-2 sampling the microphysical evolution of precipitation generated by convection and stratiform clouds along an oceanic front. All data are preliminary.

    The AMPR multifrequency radiometer supported an underflight of a GPM overpass this morning. Good precip, shame it isn't frozen though.

    Look at me talking about my favorite type of snow!

  5. That’s a wrap on our coverage of NASA’s IMPACTS mission ✈️🌨️❄️✈️! Thank you for following along with us! The team will remain in the field till March 1, and you can follow for updates.

  6. We asked the ER-2 crew and science teams what their favorite type of snow was. Here’s what they said.

    Everyone has a favorite type of snow, so asked some of the scientists what theirs was! ❄️☃️

  10. Our Observers know that nimbostratus and stratocumulus are the ones that can produce rain or snow, and we ask you about snow on the ground as part of the surface conditions reporting, but do you have a favorite type of snow? These researchers do!

  11. is an airborne mission but measurements from the ground are important too. During flights, our partners send up extra balloon sondes at some of their nearby stations to measure temp, humidity and wind speed, same as a dropsonde.

    Didn't know there was a page for until just the other day, but I'm in the shot with the SBU radar truck!

    There are important questions, and then there are *important* questions.

  14. We asked researchers and mission support teams what their favorite type of snow was. Some of them couldn't choose!

    Here's a blog post with a nice summary of second science flight. If nothing else, take a look for the nice pictures.

  17. second science flight took place on Saturday Jan 25, and we got to ride along. The storm system we’d been following all week had plenty of snow to look at up in the clouds. You can read all about it here:

  18. On Sunday, it’s quiet in the hangar and labs after yesterday’s successful science flight. We continue to ask the hard-hitting questions: What’s the best type of snow to make a snowball?

  19. They capture awesomely high-resolution images of snowflakes like these from last week’s flight from the Hawkeye’s Cloud Particle Imager. Some are perfectly crystalline, some are rimed – they’ve passed through supercooled water droplets that froze on contact. 4/6
