I had to head back home to L.A. for some rest and recharging, and to work a shift or two at LAX (to retain my certification as weather observer). \u00a0 \u00a0Chris Gullikson took charge as tour director in Hereford, TX, on June 3rd, and closed up Tour 5 on June 6.<\/p>\n

June 3 was a down day\/reposition day for the tour, up to Sidney, Nebraska. \u00a0June 4 provided “high-based storms off of the Bighorns” and then east through Busby and Lame Deer, and north to Forsythe and Glendive in Montana. \u00a0This information is courtesy of Chris! \u00a0June 5 featured a storm which didn’t last long at New Castle, Wyoming, and later stuff west of I-25 Casper to Wheatland. \u00a0A pretty rainbow at sunset was the highlight, north of Guernsey. \u00a0June 6 was the drive back to Denver for Tour 5.<\/p>\n

Tour 6 out of Denver started on the 7th. \u00a0The highlight of the first three days was a beautiful isolated supercell near Hays, Montana, on June 9th. \u00a0I caught back up with the tour on June 10th in Sidney, Montana.<\/p>\n

On June 8th, I made my way north from Denver through eastern Wyoming. \u00a0Some semi-strong high-based activity was barely worth watching south of Newcastle. \u00a0Fortunately, some new strong stuff was developing on the east side of the Black Hills, southwest of Spearfish, and that was not out of the way! \u00a0I came up to the backside of the storm at sunset along I-90, close to Buelah and the WY\/SD border. \u00a0The pics below were taken at this stop along the Interstate.<\/p>\n

I made June 9 an easy day instead of joining Tempest for their foray deep into north-central Montana. \u00a0I drove from Belle Fourche to Wibaux, via Baker.<\/p>\n
