Chase Day 30 - NM/TX/CO

[Paul Sherman]

3 Days left of tour 4 and we are pretty decently placed for today's risk if the models are too be believed.

 

Both 4km and "C" RAP Are firing cells just to our west which encroach into the Texas Panhandle by late afternoon, the reality will probably be that they get stuck in and around Springer and Mosquero again so a little drift into New mexico to see some storms might be the order of the day before bugging out and getting North East for tomorrow's risk.

 

Not much if any chance of Tornadoes today and hail and lightning the primary risks.

 

Regards

I was looking at the Clayton, NM area earlier this afternoon. Some shear - enough to build a few supecells perhaps - and the high ground to the Northwest might help. A lozenge of 60F dp noses into the area from 20Z. 

[Paul Sherman]

Yep

 

Clayton for lunch and top up of the gas, and then a trip out west on the 412 to sit in front of those mountains on the grasslands topping up the tan as we go.

OK live stream should be on and I will leave it on unless internet loses coverage.

Good news Tom. That area is especially picturesque but watch out for Indians.

Looks like a nice storm on the radar guys. Shame we can't join in the fun. Have fun!

and I worked so kep to light and focus and scenery and storm shots working but couldnt tell if it was streaming back home.

 

Not to worry we do have photos (lots of them) and video from today.
