Kevin and I have just arrived at the Holiday Inn, on Chambers street for the 7th National Stormchaser’s Convention. I have a muffin, some orange juice, and my lap top. Who could ask for anything more?

Turn out is excellent. It seems better than last year about 150 to 200 people. We could tell we were coming somewhere special – the parking lot had evidence of storm chase vehicles – vehicles bristling with antenna.

This year’s agenda begins with Opening Comments from Roger Hill, then Jim Edds will give us updates from the 2004 Hurricane Season. Before the break we will hear from Dr Al Bedard on "Detecting Tornadoes with Atmospheric Infrasound" and from Bill Axelson about Technology of the Future.

    Thanks Jeanne. I thought “a muffin” singular sounded better than the plural. Yes, I sheepishly admit to polishing off more than one muffin. The sugar rush was effective.
