I've been perusing pictures of past chases to keep up the spirits during the nadir that usually occurs this time of year. It's really not long until spring, but it seems so far away that storm chasing has become a distant memory. I am keeping busy with things weather-wise over at my Fredericksburg Weather blog but the continual mantra of cold air, freezing precipitation, and cold air damming is wearing on my nerves.
I have been contemplating a more wide-ranging 2011 Virginia chase season after I return from my stint with the Hokie Stormchase team out in Tornado Alley. The first two weeks of June are typically very active here in the Old Dominion, and if I throw my chasing net further out I may be able to squeeze in more than the average number of June events. I should have more time to do such things this year (for reasons that I will mention in a later post), and that will help make up for the slow times right now.
