This past weekend featured a rather lame weekend for severe weather across the U.S. A warm-core low pressure system pretty much was the only weather story across the U.S. to the dislike of just about every storm chaser. A few passing thunderstorms indeed, but nothing spectacular. Surely, not the norm during this past weekend in the U.S. and particularly the Great Plains. It has been a ridiculous May for severe weather, but there is hope as the ECMWF and the GFS are hinting at a pattern change which would lead to a more favorable pattern for severe weather across the northern plains and the Midwest in the next few weeks. Hopefully, June will make-up for a depressing May in terms of tornadoes, but don't hold me to that...
About the only decent convection the entire weekend (Now that's depressing)...

There is some potential this upcoming weekend for some chasing opportunities so hopefully I'll be posting again soon if I indeed chase any storms worth mentioning this weekend.
