It's very exciting to see one of the Women's Committee members (@ana_joy_wx) and collaborator (@GirlsWhoChase's Jen Walton) featured in last week's AMS Headlines! The article highlights their backgrounds and experience working together on GWC and @DOWFacility field research! ๐ช๏ธ
What's it like to put yourself in the path of a tornado ๐ช๏ธ?
Jen Walton and Anastasia Tomanek are part of both @GirlsWhoChase and the @DOWFacility team, pursuing up-close scientific measurements of severe storms.
