As I type at 12:20pm, we are driving east on I-80 between Grand Island
and York. Latest 1km Vis and surface obs suggest an area of
convergence and cyclonic vorticity near Concordia. There is a kink in
the stratus field which indicates the surface low location as well.
This is the best play today I think. We will head south toward
Belleville and probably wait there. There is a band of mid level
cloud which is about to move over the target area which will probably
work against surface-based convective initiation, however, it is still
extremely early in the day (chase mode wise) and this will probably
move on out by late afternoon (I hope). We shall see. More later.
