early afternoon update 7/10

Filed under: chase mode updates — Mike U @ 1:25 pm

Currently in Cheyenne as of 12:30pm mountain time… just finished
lunch and plan to head north of town just a bit along I-25, hang out
and watch the sky for awhile. I may end up drifting all the way to
Cheyenne. Very warm 700mb temperatures reside just south of Cheyenne
with the 700mb baroclinic zone from Cheyenne northward. Winds are now
light southeast here in Cheyenne, so the 60s dewpoints will be
creeping west toward me. Anything that forms off the Laramie Range
will not take long to suck in the real good moisture. The RUC has
consistently been generating convective QPF on each of the hourly runs
valid later this afternoon/evening… so there’s hope. More later.
