Thu, 2 Jun 2011 16:07:45 -0500 400pm chase update: in Lamar, cumulus developing southwest. Storm forming over Raton Mesa moving northeast to SE CO. 50 degree T/Td spread. Good grief | Well I knew what I was getting myself into. Moisture at the surface
has mixed out... down into the 46-49 degree range as temperatures
approach 100 degrees. I just hope there are some updraft structures
with these storms before it all becomes one big downburst-fest toward
mid-evening. I foresee a repeat of last night with dry (or psuedo
dry) microbursts all over the place. Objectives are mainly lightning,
storm-in-landscape, and taking advantage of golden hour light for
landscape scenes with dramatic sky (crossing fingers on that one).
Will probably be following whatever develops toward Dodge City area by
late evening.
