chase 7/9 target: choosing Nebraska

Filed under: chase mode updates — Mike U @ 10:03 am

I’ve just perused the latest data and model guidance, and I am
choosing Central Nebraska over northeast Colorado. There is a
mid-level wave moving into Colorado right now, and by evening it will
likely be positioned across far southwest Nebraska…which will put
central nebraska into a favorable region for deep upward vertical
motion along the stationary front. I think the most aggressive storms
will form ahead of this mid-level wave in better deep lift — not
behind it… and northeast Colorado should be behind this feature by
00z (implying subsidence). I am going to head to Kearney, NE –
arriving there by early afternoon. more later
