Chase Case #3 (2010 version)

[Corey Sloan]

Going to move from Springfield, MO to Nevada, MO to play the southern end of the squall line....the road options are good here and the terrain is not bad either.....so I hoping their is enough mid and low level rotation to get a discrete cell to rotate....

 

[Brandon Jenkins]

I had a feeling this would turn into an MO/IA play, should have known. Was committed once i made it into central Arkansas. Calling it a day.

 

[Andrea Griffa]

I'm heading to Kansas City to intercept that cell.

 

[Wes Carter]

I'm going to wait here in Clarksville, TN and watch the storms roll through. Maybe no tornadoes in the South, but I will enjoy the storms anyhow. And in real life, I wouldn't know anyhow.

 

[Jeremy Perez]

Likewise. Looks like I won't be seeing any tornadoes, but I'm sure I'm enjoying a healthy looking cell in far NE Arkansas.

 

[JeffGonzales]

Glad i had moved up to KC now im moving north to St. Joseph, MO

 

[Kevin Crawmer]

Heading north in AR to get closer to home. I will cross east over into TN if it is catchable by the time I get there. More than likely, my chase is over.

 

[Kevin Crawmer]

Actually I figured out the day. I called off the dogs early on this day in real life too. I'm out.

 

[James Gustina]

I'm calling bustsky for me. This was a tough one.

 

[Colin Davis]

I was thinking how to make this more realistic. I would love to give hour by hour updates from 18z to 00z. Only problem with that is A) I would do maybe one or two hours a day and people will want to speed it up, or B) I do it to fast and not give people enough time to play. I am trying to think of a realistic solution. I was thinking about taking it to the Convective Addiction website so I can make multiple pages ahead of time. Then have people advance one day at a time. If you fall behind you can just catch up from the links I provide. I agree with you, normally an hour (even less) update is the most ideal. Maybe I can get something figured out.

Unless you just really enjoy doing this and WANT to do that, don't kill yourself, man. It'd be sweet, but that's a bit too much for us to fairly ask of you.

I'm not going to say no, of course, though, lol. The idea you just gave is solid, though, if it can be done, but I think people do like the "call it out and prove you did well" strategy and being held accountable by their past posts aspect that ST gives, as well.

 

[Danny Neal]

I don't mind doing these cases. I usually work my day job in the mornings and I am bored half the night at the fire house anyway so I have nothing better to do between runs. lol. Chase cases deter people from drama anyway, anything to keep ones mind fixed on weather. I am actually working on a new game with the CA peeps. Gotta iron out the miscues but I really think all will enjoy it. Look for it in the next week or two.

Since no body is remotely close to chasing IA where 90% of the tornadoes were on this day, I will just go ahead and end the case. Storm were moving near 70 MPH up there on APRIL 10th, 2008! I chased this day but stuck to W. IL and got on the tornado warned storm near Roseville, IL. Failed to produce and chase was cut short early due to Adam's uh oh behind me lol.

Does anyone want to do chase case 4??? If not I will do it in the next couple of days. If someone does take it I will gladly play!

 

[Colin Davis]

Bahaha. I was on the same storm...messy, messy meso when I intercepted near Raritan.

Guess I wouldn't have been chasing this storm had I had more time, lol.

 

[Andrea Griffa]

Does anyone want to do chase case 4??? If not I will do it in the next couple of days. If someone does take it I will gladly play!

Count me in Danny for case 4

 

[Robert Dewey]

Arg... Central MO is a donut hole. Looks like there was a tornado report southeast of Springfield... I suppose I went the wrong direction lol.

 

[Joerg Kudella]

I will be in too, have to practise for next year
