Every talks about evapotranspiration (ET) and chasing but nobody does anything about it...until now. I've decided to try my hand at forecasting ET. I've started posting a webpage that gives chasers and meteorologists an ET Outlook for the next two weeks plus the following months. It's purely subjective but it's based on a lot of information, though primarily crop and soil moisture reports. You can find it via my homepage in the Discussions/Outlooks section:

On the ET outlook page is also a link to a backgrounder on ET and chasing.
I plan to update the outlook about every 2 weeks or so. Constructive feedback is always welcome.
Someday I'd like to include the output from ET models (they do exist!). I'm also hoping to build expertise to eventually assess the impact of ET on storm location, etc. plus the value of ET forecasts in this regard.
