7/19 afternoon update

Filed under: chase mode updates — Mike U @ 2:53 pm

I am a couple miles north of Clayton watching some initial congested
cumulus develop off to my north to northwest. This is the area I’m
most interested in today…. a little bit northwest of yesterday’s
initiation. I have a feeling my data coverage will be in and out…
mostly out… if I drift too far away from Hwy 64 that runs from Raton
to Clayton. Not sure exactly what will happen late this
afternoon/evening, but will probably be farther west than yesterday
just seeing how the cumulus is evolving. There is no cu field to
speak of east of the Raton ridge line. Storms may actually form in
Las Animas County and I’ll have to be patient and wait for them to get
on the other side of the ridge line probably. That’s the way I’m
seeing this now at least. More later if I have data!
