Mileage: 420 miles Chasers: Verne Carlson, Tom Dulong, Katie Burtis, Alan Covelli, Tony Laubach, Jon Van De Grift Started the day chasing out to Deer Trail, CO and then out to Limon, CO. The cell we were following died out. Headed north out of Limon to try to catch the western tail end of the storm that was tornado warned in the north by Ft. Morgan. Watched the storm become outflow dominant so we shot quicky east on HW36 to north of Burlington, CO where we caught the southern end of the MCS that was forming. Shot south down to I-70 as we watched a beautiful wallcloud form to our south. Shot east on I-70 out to Goodland, KS where the rest of the group headed on south for Texas. We headed home and enjoyed lightning and a rainbow on the way home.
