Chase account: I was not impressed enough with any additional setups to continue my chase trip, so I left Goodland and headed home on the morning of the 23rd. On the way, I stopped and photographed a contrasty dark-based rain shower/minimal thunderstorm at the scenic overlook of the Konza Prairie Preserve on K-177 just south of Manhattan:



I lingered at Manhattan as the intersection point of a pair of boundaries approached, but no convection was able to fire at this feature.
 
Catching up on some chase logs here. Brindley and I with Brad Goddard caravanning intercepted a tornado warned upslope supercell southwest of Santa Rosa, NM. Classic structure, even a little RFD clear slot and rotating curl that went overhead before it gusted out and merged with an MCS. Fun and photogenic chase with a lightning shoot at the motel later that night. Full log, stats, map, and photos:
