What causes extreme rainfall? With @NSF funding, James Ruppert, @ousom, & grad students Theresa Lincheck & Emily Luschen traveled to Taiwan & Japan to learn about what drives heavy tropical rainfall as part of the PRECIP project, led by @ColoradoStateU! 🌧️ bit.ly/OUPRECIP

#PennState scientists are working with researchers from seven institutions and @NCAR_Science as part of @PRECIP2022, a field campaign funded by @NSF to study extreme rainfall, which can trigger deadly and damaging events like flooding and landslides: ow.ly/ksRU50Kj6ft

Thank you @PRECIP2022 for my first-ever field campaign and the opportunity to reunite with my BFF @mleluschen in Taiwan. It was so much fun working with the S-Pol radar and the Hsinchu automatic balloon launcher. I can't wait to analyze the radar data at CSU! – at Taoyuan County, Taiwan

The final sounding from Hsin-Chu has been launched for PRECIP! 00 UTC 11 August also marks the end of S-Pol radar operations in Taiwan. Thank you to all who’ve helped us get to this important milestone in our project! Video credit thanks to ⁦@NickGoldenWX⁩

Thanks @PRECIP2022 for the amazing research experience in Taiwan and the chance to reunite with my BFF @zoedouglas23! It’s been amazing to work in the field and explore the world all at once! High school Emily could have never dreamed of this opportunity!

The sun sets and illuminates a distant storm that we are currently scanning with the S-Pol radar. Only one more day of PRECIP operations in Taiwan! 📸 @NickGoldenWX

My last @PRECIP2022 shift in Japan 🇯🇵launching radiosondes! It’s been a great experience during my @NCAR_Science @NCAR_MMM ASP Postdoc, I’ve learned so much! 08/07 00UTC & 06UTC Yonaguni soundings launched! 🎈🎈🎈

Being apart of @PRECIP2022 has been an awesome experience! I have learned so much, meet so many amazing people, and got to try so much great Taiwanese food!!! Had to get an S-Pol selfie, such a photogenic radar!

We did a coordinated S-Pol RHI scans with a GPM pass today from the CWB @PRECIP2022 and TAHOPE Ops center! Last week of PRECIP! Go PRECIP!

A rainy day at S-Pol! I'd say IOP10 is going well 😁 @PRECIP2022 – at Hsinchu City, Taiwan

We are continuing IOP10 (intense observing period) today. Here’s @NCAR_Science @ncareol’s SPOL radar doing a “360” scan.

With 10 more days to go, today we coincidentally begun our 10th intense observing period (IOP10). Check out this incredible storm we sampled today ⛈

Me: “let me go grab lunch before the storms fire up” @PRECIP2022 The atmosphere: “let me dump a bit of rain over you”

One of our radars was hard at work yesterday sampling this “extremely heavy rain” event (quotes are for CWB’s classification). Not seen: students and staff working hard in the trailer to ensure smooth data collection #thankyou

The rain is FINALLY here at S-Pol! @PRECIP2022 ⛈️

Did you know that we’re on day 68 of continuous operations? Our instruments have sampled a wide range of precipitation events. We’re gearing up for a potential tropical cyclone event as we near the end of our project.

As part of the @PRECIP2022 Field Campaign and as an @NCAR_Science ASP postdoc, I’m working at Yonaguni, Okinawa, Japan! It’s been quite an adventure. Not much on the radar today but there were some gusty winds last night! 💨☁️

The double tropical cyclone sandwich around Taiwan was not a scenario I envisioned for ⁦@PRECIP2022⁩. The atmosphere never ceases to amaze 🌧
