Day 1 of the 2011 Hokie Storm Chase

Not a lot to report other than nearly 700 miles driven and spending the night in Forrest, Arkansas.  We're heading toward an initial target Tuesday afternoon which may be in the Texas Panhandle, and it appears that Wednesday thru Friday may be very fruitful chase days here in the Plains.  You can follow our physical progress on the Hokie Stormchase blog.  Oh, and I am getting a few funny looks by having the mesonet probe on top of my van!!
