Chase Case #3 (2010 version)

[Jeremy Perez]

Hanging tight in Memphis, TN for now.

 

[Brian Stertz]

LZK is Little Rock Chad...and yes it sure is.

 

[Ben Tillotson]

I'll stay in Joplin, MO for now.

 

[Greg McLaughlin]

I am leaving Hot Springs and will drive up to Little Rock, AR for the time being. I am hoping the convection moving through clears out and we can see some destabilization take place. I am counting on a second round of convection developing which will be the main show. I hope this line of storms moving through doesn't end up being the main show later in the day in Tennessee and Mississippi.

 

[Matthew Piechota]

After looking at the UA maps at 12z for the morning of I thought that 850mb looked quite familiar to me and turns out I was right. I guess thats what happens when my visual memory remembers certain maps from looking at past setups. So I am out of this case now that I know the date lol good luck to everyone!

 

[Corey Sloan]

Sitting tight in my initial target of Joplin, MO....like Ryan, I am waiting for the activity to clear and the atmosphere to destabilize...keeping a close eye on the mid level feature in west/central KS along with the position of the warm front.....

 

[James Gustina]

I'm gonna drop south towards Shrevport, Louisiana

 

[Charles Kuster]

I will move slightly south to England, AR and wait for the next round of data.

 

[Dennis Dennison]

Where is the new data?

 

[Danny Neal]

I've been busy the last couple of days, bear with me.... I am currently compiling it will have it posted in 30 mins.
