Can’t beat this Oklahoma sunset from @KAEFS_OK @ou_cass cam with an added bonus of the @okmesonet Washington site! #okwx

Radiosonde launched around 10:30 local time @KAEFS_OK . Still doing profiles with the UAS, but we are experiencing icing on the platform @NWSNorman

An animation created using data from our 24-hr observational period at @KAEFS_OK earlier this month is a perfect example of the power in #wxUAS to fill the data void. (via @TMBell5)

One of the many ways @KAEFS_OK supports the faculty, students, and staff of @UofOklahoma.

The team is prepared for a 24-hour continuous measurement period starting tomorrow morning at KAEFS! CASS will be joined by @OSU_USRI as part of an ongoing field campaign to measure the PBL with a large suite of unique instruments.

It has taken quite a while but we finally have power at our #sapflux site @KAEFS_OK! Next week we will install power boards and finish wiring micrometeorological sensors to the data logger and start trouble shooting with Loggernet. So close! #hydraulics #ecophys @LexiDexi7

@ousom Faculty (Dr. Phil Chilson and Dr. Elinor Martin) along with Dr. Jamey Jacob from @okstate plus staff and students were flying in the cold/windy conditions collecting valuable observations from a variety of UAV platforms at the field station.

Just a beautiful day at the Field Station ...

SIF tracked #Eclipse2017 at #KAEFS, in comparison with a previous day. @OUWXDoc @geoxiyang

Watch as the moon's shadow passes by Oklahoma as viewed by the Mesonet's solar radiation sensors! #Eclipse2017 #EclipseClimate #okwx

KAEFS traffic jam ... #outtatheway #lazycows

[KAEFS @KAEFS_OK]

@JordanoWX @OUWXDoc @ousom Glad to have you out in the field!

[KAEFS @KAEFS_OK]

Special thanks to @MesonetMan for launching a weather balloon in the wind/rain for the KAEFS Environmental Sampling class.

[Oklahoma Mesonet @okmesonet]

We all need some levity after being in "storm mode" so here's some Field Photo Friday! Apparently horses like #okmesonet & radar data! #okwx

[KAEFS @KAEFS_OK]

First day of the KAEFS field sampling course led by Dr. Phil Gibson. Students from @OU_Biology and @ousom getting ready to visit KAEFS.

[KAEFS @KAEFS_OK]

On 4 March 2017, Dr Ed Kessler came home to rest forever at KAEFS. May his passion forever inspire current and future generations!

[KAEFS @KAEFS_OK]

Dr. Kessler was a brilliant atmospheric scientist but also a visionary in interdisciplinary research - without him, KAEFS doesn't exist. https://t.co/ltZTjf41rJ

[Oklahoma Mesonet @okmesonet]

Sad news. Dr. Edwin Kessler, III former Director of @NOAANSSL passed away earlier this week. https://t.co/PfnUywn83f

Lightning flashing and thunder rolling at KAEFS today. Stay aware and #OUSafe.

[KAEFS @KAEFS_OK]

The @UofOklahoma UAS team was up and early today with targeted flights near the @KAEFS_OK flux tower. #research
