Followed a fun storm yesterday from Tucumcari New Mexico to Mule Shoe Texas. Nothing unusual... The TIT got sand blasted and ice blasted, but the show was the mammatus clouds at sunset.
TODAY there will likely be storms with a .03% chance of tornadoes south of Lubbock TX. Instead, think I'll cut some ground to Northeast Colorado for tomorrow's storms... Look for some rattlesnakes and horny toads... Maybe do a vlog along the way.
THE REST OF MAY appears to maintain this unseasonably weak dynamics / blocking pattern... A pattern more similar to July's. I chatted with Roger Hill (pioneer of tornado touring) yesterday and he said he's never seen anything like this in 33 years of chasing. It ain't over yet though! I'm embracing the challenge and just enjoying the road, the lightning, the run down towns and stinky motels.
