MAY 25)<\/strong> We had a big supercell chase in east-central NM on the 24th, and the pattern was not too dissimilar for the 25th. Moisture was a notch lower, though, and tornadoes were not expected. CAMs indicated a rather late show getting going not too far from Tucumcari (again). That area looked reasonably good, but I was impatient. I saw what I thought were decent conditions up towards the Raton Mesa near Kim, Colorado. It wound up cold and junky right off the bat. I might have made it down south in time to the fabulous Tucumcari supercell by sunset had I figured things out…but I didn’t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chris G and his crew were on the Tucumcari supercell. Here is his time lapse video.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Towards sunset my group was northeast of Clayton in New Mexico. A squally\/linear thing was quite photogenic!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

May 26)<\/strong> SPC splattered an enhanced slight risk with a 5% tornado area over far eastern New Mexico today, generally south of I-40. We dropped south out of Clayton to Tucumcari, and then south to House, NM. This area was near an outflow boundary. A decent storm or two dragged us east from House to Melrose and Clovis, but with time the low levels started to get a cold and stable look. There was some okay structure, but little else to crow about. The SPC 5% tornado area wound up with no tornadoes on May 26th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
