Roger Edwards, of the Storm Prediction Center (SPC), is on a summer storm expedition out here in the Southwest. This unusual situation resulted from staff shortages in Norman, which caused him to defer his usual chase time in May until August. Now he is motoring around under the anticyclone.
Above is a photo from Monday in eastern New Mexico beneath an arcus cloud. He referred to this, in chaser jargon, as a whale's mouth arcus."
I think he's somewhere in Arizona today; however, I doubt that August chases to the Southwest will become a habit for him. Good hunting Roger!
