Apart from two quite short outrages the stream was up all day. Including one of the wettest core punches I've experienced. A months rain in an hour, along with some huge cg's.
We were so close to getting a tornado today, but no cigar. Oh, and the attack of the tumbleweeds will look good on video too!

We will be heading south today. Once we meet up with Paul and Tony, who has finally been reunited with his case after they drove back to Concordia while the rest of us stopped in Colby after a haul out of Colorado.

Sorry guys. Our Verizon connection in the streaming car has some issues. Hopefully we can get it fixed overnight

It was a very cool day, it didnt turn out as planned, but with so many boxes ticked it's going to be one that the team and guests will all remember
A 400 mile wide derecho with damaging wind speeds, embedded storms and huge hail passed over our heads before it really started throwing down hail.
Then a few storms later we were treated to an amazing sunset
What followed was an incredible light show, I'll let others share their pics, as I just watched and then drove through a strobing sky with multiple CG's as we headed to our overnight hotel in Kearney and a well earned midnight beer at Applebys

We're lunching in grand island while waiting on developments. Things are looking pretty dangerous as the derecheo passes through. Could be embedded tornadoes moving at 50-100mph, so we won't be chasing those...

Where are you headed Tom, questioning minds need to know...
See you Sunday, I may even start packing by Saturday night.

I hate you all :-). Jet lag is kicking my butt and you're chasing in a state that's not on my list! Did anyone shoot the ball lightning?

Montana might be one of the most scenic states I've visited, but the internet sucks and the road network isn't so much a network as a couple of interstates connected by mining and logging roads.
Still we got some nice structure, decent CG's (I'll pull these from video later) and got to see snow, so all good.

Bid (that's Christine Hooper) was filming as we approached a warned storm, and manage to catch the ghostly high speed tornado that appeared out of nowhere and shot accross the road in front of us.

Today we will be heading further into Kansas to visit Arrons & Laura's incredibly hospitable extended family and will also meet the newest addition the Hiscox clan.
Believe it or not temperatures here hit 1c overnight and there was wet snow in northern Illinois near where we were 2 days ago. We may be hitting Walmart for ski wear at this rate...

Morning - or evening back in the UK I guess, we're heading off soon as the last stragglers make it downstairs after an impromptu celebration of the tour so far last night (I fell asleep before it all happened).
Paul will update the chase plans once we get underway as we look to get on the storms later this afternoon, in the meantime it feels very British with some drizzle and temps of 14c.
