May 18 POD UPDATE 3

Date: 
Wed, 05/18/2011

Citation crew hung in with us waiting for the dryline to fire today.  Alas, it was too cloudy, cool and capped this evening so nothing fired.  Thanks guys!

ER-2 is now "green" for operations tomorrow (Thursday).  Tomorrow's plan is 2000 UTC ER-2 take-off with T-5 call at 1500 UTC (1000 CDT).  There is a (hopefully) better chance for dryline forced convection tomorrow afternoon into evening.  We'll adjust and refine plans for Thursday and Friday, including phasing of ER-2 ops between the two potentially stormy days.  We will also clarify our vision for Citation's role in Thursday potential operations during the morning briefing period.
