VORTEX 2 will investigate tornadogenesis, tornado structure and the relationships between tornandos, their parent thunderstorms and the larger-scale environment by using an armada of ground-based, mobile measurement systems including the DOWs, MGAUS and mobile ISS. The PI is Josh Wurman from the Center for Severe Weather. The project is planned for Spring 2009.
