A wee-hour in the morning update

Filed under: chase mode updates — Mike U @ 3:20 am

We are not far from Lawrence, KS where we will drop off Jay and drive
to Evan’s place for the remainder of the night. Tomorrow is a down
day. We need it. We will not chase the northern Iowa moderate risk.
After the “bust for the ages” chase yesterday, I need a mental break
from this hobby for a good couple days. I’ll relax Thursday, regroup,
run a couple errands, visit my folks perhaps, and maybe even catch the
Royals game since they have a home game tomorrow night. Then Friday,
depending on how Evan wants to finish out his vacation we will either
A) make Friday a Day 2 drive to target for Saturday or B) drive to
Dodge City so Evan can pick up his vehicle and head back to KC.
Either way, I will likely continue chasing Saturday-Monday (if Evan
decides to continue chasing) or Saturday-Tuesday if he doesn’t. It
depends on the pattern, too, of course, but there should be decent
chasing ops Saturday through Tuesday given the southwest flow pattern
and good return moisture. It will be setting up farther north,
though, especially Sunday and beyond.
