Members of the public are invited to attend a hailstorm field day that will kick-off the In-situ Collaborative Experiment for the Collection of Hail In the Plains (ICECHIP). ICECHIP is the first U.S. hail-focused field campaign in over 40 years. For six weeks, researchers will chase hailstorms in order to collect data that will be instrumental in advancing hail detection, improving forecast models and strengthening public warning systems.
