5/15 - 7:30pm - Dreary Day, Less Rain for Tomorrow

What a nasty day its been! Nearly a quarter inch of rain and the temperature had difficulty even getting into the mid-60's. Tomorrow could see some drizzle in the morning, but we'll likely see just clouds in the afternoon. After tomorrow a daily chance of rain, just a small one, exists each day until about Wednesday. By next weekend (when I leave) we'll see another major rain maker come in and give us a soaking.

There's been a lull in severe weather in the Plains over the last week. Looks like that will give way to an active severe weather pattern by next weekend (how convenient... I arrive in Amarillo on Saturday and the chase starts Sunday). The GFS is putting some troughs through the Plains after next weekend and it seems that other models say this is only the beginning. Looks like it could be quite a ride... Lots of good pictures are sure to come!

Only 9 days left!
