Storm Chasing 2012 - Day 1

Storm chasing started yesterday. I met the group at the Denver International Airport and hit the road to Pratt, KS, which is where we stayed last night.  We did not do any chasing yesterday and took the long drive from Denver to Pratt to set ourselves up to chase today.  Chances are decent today with the NWS saying there is a 45% chance of severe weather over Southern Kansas and Central Oklahoma.

The van ride was long but it gave all of us time to get to know each other....well....it gave us two outsiders (Me and Daniel) time to know everyone. Lots of laughs were had. I look forward to the rest of the trip with this group.

Hopefully further updates will be more thrilling than this. But for now, I leave you with a picture of Kaylee and Fuzzy Caterpillar Jr. at the "Welcome to Kansas" sign.  Yes, we forced Dr. Pereira to stop on the side of I-70 so we could take this picture.
