Leaving on a jet plane

My departure is approaching. I am pretty much finished with school, well at least what I need to finish before I leave. I will be completing the remainder of the semseter from ship and after I get back in December. Unfortunately I have a caught a cold. Yesterday was pretty rough, but I feel a little better today. Luckily, I got sick right after I finished my last presentation in Convection. Hopefully I will feel better before I depart on Monday. Being the "sick guy" on ship, probably won't make me very popular.

According to Matt, everything seems to be on track on ship. Something that makes me happy, because it hopefully means there is less a chance of something going wrong while I am there.

We have come close to finishing our website that has the radar and sounding data and cloud photos taken from ship. See below for link.

Here a few important websites (some I have mentioned before) that you can check out for updates.

Postcards from the field - Something I will be taking part in once I am on ship.
