Chasing the polar low

Description

On Andoya in Northern Norway a group of weather scientists is stationed to study the polar low, by flying into the storms collecting data. The unpredictable and damaging winter storms have a tendency to sneak past the meteorologist's observation grid, and are almost impossible to forecast. But now the biggest storm chase in Norwegian history has started. The result of their findings may help to prevent environmental disasters and loss of human lives in the future.
