All things Extreme Weather!
And today we drove to Kansas for Mexican Food
After driving to Kansas zero convection was seen in the southern half of the state. Instead of busting our butts to head to northern Kansas, which would have put us many more hours away from home, we opted for Mexican food in Pratt Kansas. After a VERY enjoyable meal we headed to Elk City, OK for the night.
Next possible chase looks to be Saturday: stay tuned for forecast.
No time today for an indepth forecast post. The image above gives you the general layout for currently this afternoon. A nice sweeping dryline bulge coming out across NW OK with low pressure back in Kansas.
Moisture streaming up into KS ahead of the dryline and upper energy will be coming out soon across central and northern KS and NE. Expect stoms to fire later east and north of DDC. There could be some further south along the dryline but with aN stout cap in play, we decided to try to get as far north as we can.
Currently in Canadian, TX headed NE and will be turning north once we cross in to OK heading for KS. We got a later start than we wanted today. We aren’t yet throwing out the option of busting east if the dryline fires off here in western OK. If something does pop along that, it should be severe rather fast with all modes of severe possible.
We will have the LIVE ChaseCam up and running here shortly!
