6/13/2012

        Clovis, New Mexico is where I woke up this morning even more tired than any other day before. Everyone was becoming irritated at the fact that we hadn't seen a full on tornado! We drove to Roswell, New Mexico were we stopped to fill up on gas. Usually this is an uneventful task, but today was a day filled full of excitement. The Dominator showed up at the same gas station. For those of you who may not know who drives The Dominator, his name is Reed Timmer. Reed is the lead chaser of the TV series Storm Chasers.
        As we went throughout our day, the area was forecasted with a slight risk and a 2 percent chance of seeing a tornado. There was one storm that caught our eye, which was the same storm Reed was chasing. The storm however was a bust and so was the rest of the day. We ended up just admiring the natural landscape of New Mexico, which mostly consisted of rock and cactus. The temperatures were mostly in the upper 80's and mid 90's with dry air, making it feel so amazing outside. Since we were so used to the moist air, making temperatures feel like they are in the upper 90's to 100 degrees.
