The situation continues to unfold for chasing prospects next week. The GFS, chaser talk, SPC, and various AFDs are continuing to show the chance for chasable weather next week south of I-70 and into Texas. Being we're still a week or more out, I've done little forecasting except to make sure the GFS still has a system in there. With several days of showing this system moving into the US, its pretty safe to say that there will be a chance we'll be chasing something next week.
My biggest concern remains with what Sprint will do. They returned an email I sent to them informing me of a callback to "resolve the situation". My hope is I will have data access of some sort during next week's chase. I'm thinking I'll have my answers and hopefully a resolved situation before my 7pm Differential Equations exam tomorrow. I'll post the end result of that conversation as soon as its finished.
The tentative plans as of now remain as follows... Wednesday of next week will be a travel day to get in or near a target. Chasing will ensue Thursday and Friday with a return trip on Saturday, hopefully giving me Sunday to vedge and get set for the home stretch of the semester. However, because the timing of the system remains unknown, not to mention if there will even be anything to chase, all of this is subject to change. Regardless, I have shifted my alert up a notch to reflect the tentative plans. Of course, with it being the time of year it is, us here in Colorado will have to watch the backside of this system for snow/blizzard potential. Again, these details will start to emerge in the coming days. In the meantime, I'll continue to watch as this situation develops!
