Forecast for Today
It looks like there might be a decent shot at a few supercells with tornado potential close to home today. I woke up to pounding rain and it’s been raining all morning. I’ve got a meeting with some chase partners over here at 10:30 to discuss future chasing stuff so I need to get back to that, but basically it looks like this arc of convection will clear out through the day allowing the sun to come back out. If we can get good insolation and a couple storms to fire near the border southwest of Wichita (or some place in that vicinity) they would definitely have a good environment to work with. If the sun starts coming out here I’m going to start loading up my chase gear. The high res. WRF model has a few supercells breaking out just southwest of Wichita along the border Wichita, at a pretty decent time too, which would be ideal. If that happens it could be a really good chase day. That’s a lot of it’s, but it is right next to home so I can sit here and enjoy the rain while I work until then
