The first Great Plains storm chase expedition of the 2015 spring season is under way! This system promises several good opportunities for tornadoes as good upper support from a western US trough overspreads instability in the Plains. This system has already brought photogenic tornadoes in Texas and Kansas yesterday and today.

I'm heading in a general westerly direction into Kansas, and will choose either I-35 southwest or I-70 west to target tomorrow's setup. Stay tuned for updates!

The following table charts the probability of a Great Plains storm chase expedition happening for several indicated date ranges in the near future:
