Well, 2 nights ago I was chatting with TONY LAUBACK about chasing today. For some unknown reason, the NAM was breaking out storms in Western Kansas today. It was the only model to do this and it came out of nowhere. We joked around about how the NAM was smoking a crack pipe. LOL. Long behold, woke up this morning and there it was, Western Kansas in a Slight Risk with a 2% tornado.
My plans right now appear to be iffy. Clouds are not eroding as fast as I was hoping and dew points are really not that high. But, over the past 30 minutes, clouds have eroded away rapidly around the Dalhart, and Boise City area. If dewpoints can get a little higher than they are, I plan on heading west toward Dalhart and hope to fin an Isolated Supercell. I will have another entry before I leave.
