Off to a wet start
As anticipated the campaign gets off to a wet start, with quite a bit of surface water from all the recent rain resulting in very low brightness temperature observation. The warmer weather predicted for the next few weeks should see a nice dry down take place. This will also provide a nice test for SMAPs water correction algorithm.
