Severe Warned Storm between Eastend - Lafleche SK Canada
Chasing a Squall Line East of Consul!
This day was a little tough to forecast and became a little frustrating.
Via models, I was seeing storms form at the Alberta border as well as Montana and push their way into the extreme SW corner of SK. That is what happened, but it did become a Squall Line mess (over 600 km in length) rather fast and eventually sped up and overtook most of the chasers, leaving them in the rain for hours!
Myself included. I was in the rain until almost Fort Qu'Appelle!
At one point, I was in a rain free area at Shaunavon while trying to decide 2 options:
1) go South towards the new storms coming in from Montana
2) push North to Gull Lake and then to Swift Current to "try" to stay in front of the Squall Line.
I procrastinated for too long and the fast moving storm over took me.
I should of went to Swift Current as my Brother working there began to send me photos of the beast moving in, and they were both intense & beautiful!
Not a fantastic chase day, but it had it's fun moments!
