18z nam and nam 3km both bring better moisture. I think question of warm sector activity comes down to sunshine. Right now, simulated IR is cloudy for most of the day.
Is it me or are these storms not moving east at all. Seems like the line has stalled and is just training. Would allow more time to destablize to the east...
Latest HRRR is handling the clearing well. Oddly, it doesnt destabilize much though. ~500 cape. Obviously enough for today, but I would have thought clearing would push to 750+
Thought you all might be interested in some chase stats. 2018 was a long year. 8972 miles. 5 tornadoes (1 in February and 4 in December). Got some pretty cool shots in the plains. For how bad 2018 sucked, I had a decent year.
FWIW, there may be the *potential* for some severe around 12/27. GFS has been fairly consistent and the EURO has a similar low as well.
Obviously pretty far out still but the D7/8 period looks somewhat intriguing.

.Thanks. was actually a screen grab from an iphone video. my gps tracker put me about 3 miles wsw from maroa.
On a side note, I wrote a program that logs all my gps points on a 1 second interval. Pretty handy for post analysis.
