Looking back, I’m not sure I would pull the trigger on chasing (from Oklahoma) if this same setup were in place today.  There was an upper low over the Western U.S. with decent 30 to 40 knot flow spreading over Colorado.  Low level moisture was returning on upslope flow and it definitely looked like a day where you could get some supercell storms.  If I was in the area on a chase trip I would be excited about the days potential, but I don’t think I would make the drive from Central Oklahoma for it.

The supercell that was responsible for the tornadoes northwest of Limon was an interesting one.  It spent most of its life slightly stretched out from west to east and usually had more than one – sometimes three – meso-cyclones.  The tornadoes that were produced moved generally due north, resulting in paths that were parallel to each other, but with a progressive farther north latitude.  The tornadoes would tend to move to the northwest near the end of their lives.

In retrospect, it was a privilege to have been able to view this supercell.  It would have been nicer with about an hour more of light, but still very impressive none the less.  I saw very few storm chasers, but it did put on quite a show for the locals.  As I was driving north out of Limon, there were yards full of people in lawn chairs that were viewing the spectacle.
