100% Uncertain...
May 19th had been the most difficult forecasting day of SWIFT yet. There were not many boundaries, if any boundaries, to be found on any models or radar in the morning. The question was to go east or south, yet we decided to stay close to where we had stayed in the hotel the previous night in Salina, KS.
With not being in much of a rush, we enjoyed lunch at Mr. K's Farmhouse restaurant, which was notable where Eisenhower also enjoyed meals there several years back. Once finished with lunch, we went to the Eisenhower park where we enjoyed some sun while staying updated with HRRR models and MSC updates. We noticed some pressure falls occurring to the west of us in Colorado and a cyclone system which had potential to push things into action and we decided to move further east.
We did catch a boundary that afternoon, however, we never had convective initiation and could no longer chase that evening. The team enjoyed a nice smoked dinner and one of our first early evenings in the hotel.
