Moderate Risk Chasing Today

I will be leaving Greeley at 3am to pick up Katie Crandall and then to go pick up Cameron to meet Tony Laubach and their team sometime after 5am. Were all going to caravan out to Kansas today for a Moderate Risk with a 15% hatched area for tornadoes. Theres talk of when initiation will occur sometime between 3 and 6 CDT and the moisture return. Either way I would still be chasing, so Im not going to stress out about it, but since the moderate risk is because of tornado risk then it should be an interesting day.
