Boy, sure glad I didnt bite on last night's data and stayed home in St. Joseph. I really see no need to go anywhere til I see some some 18z data, so Im gonna hang around and get some things done in St Joseph, MO. Realistically, I can get anywhere I need to go within a couple hours.

Based on the 0z data I spent the night in Hays, Kansas and I really don’t like what the 12z data shows. I really dislike the veered 850mb winds and the meager moisture further north. That being said, I think I will chase the warm front setup and head towards Sioux City, Iowa. I will have to check the 18z data along the way and make adjustments as necessary.

I will stay in Oakley, KS and wait for the 18Z data.

Rolling out of Wichita heading to Auburn NE. I should be there before 18Z. Don't want to play the cold front and think the play will be a OFB intersecting the warm front. Sure would be nice to get more data!

Wow, drove a little too far west last night. Going do drift back east to Omaha, NE. Will hang out there until the the 18z data comes out.

I'm moving eastward toward Russell, KS. I should get there around 2000Z.

Hmm... Staying put in TOP. FWIW, I'm not liking the satellite image for NE KS. That looks almost like subsidence to me, and I've seen that kill off a good potential many times.
I think I went a bit too far south. Going to slide north up the dryline towards what appears to be a developing bulge in SW KS. I can see CU starting to develop along it. Target: Caldwell, KS. Should be there in 2 hours. May even head a little farther north to get north of the bulge. We'll see when I get there. Moisture depth looks pitiful in N KS, not so much into NE, but I'm concerned they won't break the cap up there. It doesn't look too bad in S KS either.
By the way, the national surface analysis (first link) seems to be giving away something as it is showing activity in SC KS as of the "18Z analysis" which is not showing up on the radar mosaics nor the surface obs. Is that from the correct date?

Call me a fool but I am going to nudge out of OAX to Nebraska City, NE

Not impressed by anything I am seeing with sounding hodos... Dewpoints just south of me are lower than I hoped but the moisture return in SC KS and C OK is optimistic.
Drop a bit south to Beatrice, NE.
