Severe prospects continued to be rather poor (just a “marginal” risk), but at least we would have something to chase today, maybe somewhere from southwest Nebraska to east-central Colorado along a weak trough. Moisture was again on the low side, so high-based convection was expected.
We began in Yuma and killed some time at Beecher Island, south-southeast of Wray, CO. The U.S. Army battled Indians at this location in 1868.
We squeezed in a fine Mexican food lunch in Saint Francis, and eventually wound up on a strong-to-severe storm south of I-70. This one was moving east-southeast from about Eads to Wylie (near Lamar).
