mappy Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Ian, Mark and JT (wxmeddler) left last night for Chasecation 2015! Third year in a row the three of them have gone out together. I'm sure they will check in with updates while out west. But if you want to follow any of them on twitter, their handles are: @islivingston @markellinwood @wxmeddler and I know they will be giving updates on ustornadoes.com (@ustorandoes) throughout the trip Good luck guys!

Ian Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Hitting CO today. Happy with forecast since we chose it while SPC wasn't even showing a marginal risk. Now up to 5% tor..

Even if you don't see ropes it would be a short drive to the mountains and you could see snow that hasn't melted yet. Snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kay Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Best of luck with the chase. I've been perusing US Tornadoes recently, btw. Great reading! You are a very good and clear writer, Mr. Ellinwood (already knew this about Ian). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvantHiatus Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Is this a chase thread or cape may weather updates thread? It just wasn't for that. The Midwest is very (record breaking) wet right now and they picked a perfect time to go chasing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Def been active past 6-8 weeks or so. Almost too much moisture but climo shifts north around now. Even up here in KS and CO a lot of standing water. If the flow doesn't shut down we should have quite a good trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
