Things are go for our chase this afternoon. I'll be meeting with Tom Dulong in Brighton at 3:30p and we'll adjust from there. I don't imagine we'll go too far right off the bat unless storms nearby warrent the move. Verne is going to head out from his place about 4pm and meet us on the road. SPC maintained the 5% tornado chance in Northeast Colorado, however with little mention of the area in their discussion. SFC dews out east look healthy and temps are even a bit cooler than once would expect. RUC indicates good CAPE and helicity in Northeast Colorado, and with upper level winds actually moving storms a bit, hopefully we can get those storms into the favorable air a bit quicker than our
June 11 chase in which storms barely made it off the foothills before going to crap. My girlfriend will be coming along for the first time this year, so hopefully her jinxing ways will result in something opposite from what's been delivered with 2006. Hopes aren't particularly high, but things look all right! We shall see in a few hours!
