ICECHIP: PSU NARHWAL Windsond Data

Summary

Vertical profiles of temperature, relative humidity and winds from the Pennsylvania State University NARHWAL Windsond system that was deployed at locations around the United States plains region for the ICECHIP (In-situ Collaborative Experiment for the Collection of Hail In the Plains) campaign.

Archive note

Windsonds were released during ICECHIP IOPs into near-storm and in-updraft environments. There were also a few pre-convective initiation comparison tests.
