This was likely the last day of chasing for my season. Things were hopeful as we left this morning. A long grind from Valentine south to North Platte. Then east to Grand Island. We go a good start so we had time to gas up, feed up and rest up while watching and waiting. It was a tough day to target a location where the cap would likely break but we thought we made the right choice when we saw the Cloud Nine folks drive up. We enjoyed killing time with the group and had another pleasant conversation with Charles Edwards. Once the 3pm update came out we all broke west going our separate ways.

We ended up going all the way back to North Platte and dropped into the NWS. The front stalled. Storms turned into another line of crap. Huge disappointment. Season's done for me I'm afraid.

We landed in Kearney NE. Tomorrow we'll take our time heading back to Omaha. Tough year...
