Evan Bookbinder and Jay Antle will arrive in Dodge City some time this evening in preparation for our first chase day, tomorrow, June 11. It appears our first day will not be too far from southwestern Kansas: Raton Mesa or just north of there, about a 3 to 4 hour drive from Dodge City. Thereafter, the pattern looks excellent for High Plains storm chasing/photography for much of the trip! More later!

Hey Mike,
Just wanted to say good luck on your chasing. I’m also finally getting out to chase this spring. As my niece and I will out from Thursday 11th to Sunday 14th. I guess you’re a little more optimistic on the pattern then I am. You have a little more experience on the high plains set up then I do. As I’m still trying to figure out the key meso scale ingredients. So keep the good news coming and again be safe and good luck.

Hi Mike,
Best of luck on your chase-cation! I’m in Garden City tonight and also plan on photographing the high plains of eastern Colorado on Thursday. Perhaps I’ll see you on the road. –Bryan
