so chasing season has really slowed down, i just got back from a cap bust tonight myself, so i thought i would post what i found tonight. i wish i could actually grab and attach the images, but it seems like only the link will work. the link is time sensitive of course with it being a forecast sounding on a model run. looking at tonight's 7/15 0Z GFS run, i found a day with some areas of higher cape, so i clicked on the map to get a sounding and this is what i found:

http://twisterdata.com/index.php?sounding.x=523&sounding.y=288&prog=forecast&model=GFS&grid=3&model_yyyy=2009&model_mm=07&model_dd=15&model_init_hh=00&fhour=216&parameter=CAPE&level=SURFACE&unit=none&maximize=n&mode=singlemap&sounding=n&output=image&archive=false&sounding=y&sndclick=y

this was very near waterloo, ia at 0Z 7/24. talk about a boring sounding! the highest wind speed on any level is 20 kts at about 450 mb and then at 150 mb. again i know this link won't work forever, but still thought i would post it:)
