This is the sort of setup that can tornado in northern Ohio and southeastern Michigan. But it's not as dynamic at the surface as I'd like to see. Anyway I was about to target Ann Arbor when the 00Z was posted. Either we're after the fact, or I'll target Canton, OH, for something very soon, or... bust. Bust is my top candidate.

 

[Nick Bender]

With the new 00Z data out, I'm going to punch north from Middlesboro, KY, and cross over into Portsmouth, OH and wait for things to develop - possible asspirations to continue a northeastward progression.

 

[Charles Kuster]

I will go with Mount Vernon, Ohio.

Adrian, MI

 

[Shane Adams]

I'm gonna stay where I'm at: Wheeling, WV

A cold front extends near the IL and IN border and arcs through southeast MO into northern AR, while a warm front intersects the cold front in northeast IL and curves southeast through OH. A sfc trof also extends from the cf/wf intersection and through central IN.

I'd play an area along just east of the sfc trof/south of the warm front... Near Dayton, OH.

I'm still going with my Dayton, OH target...

Sitting here with severe indigestion, still in Lexington Kentucky. Damn Taco Bell..

 

[Mike Hollingshead]

Heading home after whatever happened.

 

[Joel Wright]

At the hospital, still here in Lexington Kentucky getting my stomach pumped from food poisoning from earlier Taco Bell.

But did I at least see a damn tornado?

 

[Shane Adams]

I'm still in Wheeling, but I see the langoliers coming and I'm hoping for closure on this chase case soon before it ceases to exist.

 

[Dan Cook]

Mike got it right, was 9/20/2000, with Xenia getting clobbered again.

 

[Shane Adams]

I'm fairly satisfied with this one, as I am totally unfamiliar with this part of the country, I didn't deviate from my gameplan, and I had no clue what date this was. Even got within a few counties of some severe :lol:
