What is your boundary to chase?
I prefer drylines... Since growing up and my first few years of chasing were in the great lakes - I never had the pleasure to enjoy dryline chasing. Instead, most of the time you have to deal with cold fronts... In turn, they often produce strongly forced, lines of thunderstorms in the late spring and summer. Some give you a pretty darn good wind event, but most of the time, nothing more. I really love drylines because they typically have JUST enough convergance to setoff discrete supercells... In addition, I also like OFBs, since they often allow a storm to "root" or "anchor" along them and can often work magic in terms of tornadogenisis.
