Begin: Burlington, CO/brunch: Burlington VFW eatery/End: Limon/est. 180 miles
We tried the Palmer Divide again today, where shear and instability were more than enough for supercells. Dews continued to be so-so, in the 50s. We killed time at the TOWER in Genoa, and then waited around near Hugo for the fun to begin. Finally, an updraft went up NNW of Limon. We watched along 71, about 10 miles north of Limon. I thought that we were in Fat City. But the storm seemed to be stuck between us and Deer Trail, and it eventually got creamed by a left-mover from the Simla area. Excessive wailing and gnashing of teeth ensued.
