Posted by Daphne Thompson on 08/29/2012

As Hurricane Isaac makes his way inland in Louisiana, the National Weather Center has two mobile radars deployed on the coast to collect data. Mike Biggerstaff, Dan Betten, Kyle Thiem, and Patrick Marsh have been experiencing strong winds and heavy rain as they have gone through the hurricane's eye wall. SMART-R 1 is currently located in Houma, LA and Smart-R 2 is in Thibodaux, LA.
