Sitting south of Sweetwater on hwy 70, decided not to be tempted by the first supercell of the day……..only time will tell if that was a good decision. Hopefully something will erupt along the dryline to verify our decision. Currently considering going after the storm over Big Spring.
——————————-
We are go for Big Spring, go for Big Spring, currently hoping we don’t pull a Steve Miller Tx aka kill it at arrival on scene.
Structure is amazing, anvil is knuckling over, radar looks like a good.
PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION
As of 1:20pm today the Storm Prediction Center has issued a PDS tornado watch for the I20 corridor and areas south including the metropolitan areas of San Angelo, Big Spring, Sweetwater, Brownwood, as well as many others. This watch stresses the dire need for attention from people living in the areas to keep abreast to the situation. Destructive tornadoes are EXPECTED and long tracked cyclical supercells with multiple tornadoes are not out of the question.
We are currently headed south towards Snyder with the anticipation of locating the triple point and staying as close as possible to that since tornadoes, today, are most likely in the vicinity of the warm front.
We are already running the LIVE ChaseCAM so stay tuned for developing weather. One side note: we are currently north of the warm front which is why we are in fog.
