A brief rundown of day 3: cap bust. We stayed the night in North Platte, NE.
So today we've got 2 plays to think about: one in the foothills of Colorado and Wyoming, and one in southeast Nebraska.
The play in Colorado is very unlikely to be a cap bust, but the directional turning of the wind doesn't look as impressive. All the other parameters for supercells will be in place, provided the stratus and drizzle to which I woke up clears away.
The southeast Nebraska play is more conditional but potentially has great storms, with great directional turning. Thing is, it really is a potential cap bust and the chase territory turns pretty bad pretty quickly.
So, do we go to a pretty much sure thing that may or may not produce a tornado, or do we go to a maybe that, if it goes, produces grinders (high risk, high reward)?
Stay tuned to see what happens next time on As The Meteorologist Chases.
