7:35PM – It’s definitely a late summer pattern out there. The jet pattern is non-existent which leaves the most constant boundary the dry line. Sure enough, there is at least a marginal risk in the High Plains every day from today through the weekend, and probably to start the week ahead.

9:37PM – There has been a tornado watch in the Colorado/Nebraska/Wyoming tri-state. High Plains tornadoes are typically photogenic, visible for miles, and isolated from human populations. No tornadoes have been observed tonight, but there has been 2.5 inch hail around Cheyenne. Hope you have a hail deductible, chasers!
