Day 2 Pre Chase - Chasecation Log

After a good night's sleep in Goodland, we are pretty excited about today's setup! Definitely a tornado day if we play our cards right. Current thinking is around Burlington/Limon Colorado.

Current surface obs show a front and outflow boundary well into N and NE Colorado and approaching the NE/KS line. Models are handling this abit differently, but by far will be a major factor to watch today and how it evolves. Also, RUC forecasts show a nice dry air bulge at the surface working into NE CO with a sharp demarcation....a dryline. This will also serve to be the focus for any tornadic supercell to latch onto and go nuts.

With some pretty stout instability and strong veering profiles with decent shear and upslope flow, all the ingredients are there for some pretty impressive supercells.

First, some breakfast, coffee and a trip to Wally World!
