no chasing this weekend

...or probably for the rest of the year.

the storms expected this afternoon and tonight around here (yay for rain!) will be elevated. as well, they won't be drawing on a whoe lot of moisture. so no dice.

if i had my druthers, i'd be going down to eastern nebraska today and heading for wahpeton/breakebnridge (southeast nd) for tomorrow. but i have these things called commitments.

ah well, as wxdog says, there'll always be more storms.

another pirep

these things are just sometimes funny.

h/t to my colleague dgb for pointing it out.
