Friday we had a sort of pre-game show for the main weather event coming up, and it was a chance to take the new storm chase vehicle out on a maiden voyage and shake out all the new equipment for bugs.  Overall, everything worked beautifully.  I did have an issue with the camera software for streaming, which a reinstall took care of that today, and a small issue where the main GPS display lost power, a quick check today indicated I must have accidentally got it unplugged when I was reassembling the  interior.  I'll have a full web page up for the new vehicle, probably after this severe event, later this week.  In the mean time, you can check out the news story KCBD NewsChannel 11 did Friday on the launch of the new storm chase vehicle below, as well as a more in depth look on this Facebook video:
