My Storm Log #2: Frustration

This is why I hate having a very limited budget and amount of time to be able to storm chase. Everything's just gone crazy this week down in Kansas and Nebraska, and I'm stuck here. The major tornado outbreak for Minnesota? Not materializing. Isolated severe threat for the area overnight.

The valid Day 2 convective outlook sounds a bit more promising.

...ERN DAKOTAS INTO THE UPPER GREAT LAKES...

   SIGNIFICANT MID LEVEL SHORT-WAVE TROUGH IS EXPECTED TO EXTEND FROM
   MID LEVEL LOW...SEWD ACROSS SERN SD INTO CNTRL IA BY 31/00Z.  DEEP
   LAYER SHEAR WILL INCREASE ACROSS THIS REGION SUCH THAT ANY STORMS
   THAT EVOLVE COULD ROTATE...POSSIBLY ATTAINING SUPERCELL
   CHARACTERISTICS.  MUCH OF THE MID MS VALLEY/UPPER GREAT LAKES WILL
   STRUGGLE TO DESTABILIZE APPRECIABLY DUE TO EXTENSIVE CLOUD COVER. 
   HOWEVER STRONG BOUNDARY LAYER HEATING WILL BE NOTED ACROSS NEB INTO
   SERN SD.  STRONG/SEVERE TSTMS WILL LIKELY BE ONGOING AT THE
   BEGINNING OF THE PERIOD ALONG NOSE OF LLJ AND THIS ACTIVITY SHOULD
   PROPAGATE/DEVELOP NEWD IN ASSOCIATION WITH THE LLJ INTO SRN WI
   DURING THE AFTERNOON HOURS.

And that's why.
