COMPLETE MARCH 23, 2007 STORM CHASE LOG HERE!
Took the local day-before-the-day chase with Jon Van de Grift and Jennifer Brindley here in Northeastern Colorado and were rewarded for our patience as we got on a storm shortly after 3pm which moved off the Palmer Divide and slowly trekked north and east towards Fort Morgan. After nearly bailing on it a couple times, we finally watched it move into the higher dew air and quickly go severe over Fort Morgan. By this time, dark had fallen, but we were greeted with a great light show and incredible structure which quickly made the trip worth-while. All this was basically to position ourselves for Saturday's setup. We met with Mike Umscheid in Deer Trail and chased around with him today!
Chillin' at our Best Western here in Sterling, Colorado after a surprisingly enjoyable chase in Northeast Colorado. We're looking forward to tomorrow's bigger and better setup somewhere in the area. Waiting on the next series of runs and SPC's new Day 1 to start to figure out where we'll be tomorrow.
More in the morning!
