Here are some of my pictures. I'll leave the commentary to others.
great pics stuart,loving the bolts and skycrawlers too,nice few tornadoes too
well done -
Wow! What a day this was. It caught virtually every chaser out but delivered the goods in the end! Started out in Wichita Falls with an initial target of Haskell, TX. A couple of weak storms were struggling to keep going, possibly due to a dry air slot we'd noticed on the early morning soundings. After a very frustrating few hours we noticed a line of storms fire from east of Wichita Falls all the way down to roughly Brownwood. Hauled it east 70 odd miles and caught the middle cell as it was just going through Mineral Wells. Slid down the western side of it and then went east to be presented with a lovely cone tornado that put on a show for us for a few minutes near Millsap!
After the cone dissipated, further down the road we had another brief touchdown. Tracked the storm south east where it started to merge with the southern cell. We then witnessed our third tornado whilst trying to get south but got cut off by the awful road network. We had to scoot north and then back south and then this is when it went on it's rampage through Granbury with 6 fatalities, 16 missing and 100's injured
It then went on to plough through Cleburne and then on to the DFW area.All in all a great chase in the end but very sobering to hear of the loss of life
Why can't these things just happen over open land?A few picks from me including a tree that got struck by lightning and stripped it's bark! I have some video that I'll try and get uploaded too.
nice one guys glad all is safe and sound too,plus delighted for the crew to get to see a tornado or 3

Just a few quick shots from the farm yesterday - mainly video grabs as the muzzle flashes are cool, and the mandatory group shots on the steps. A huge thank you to Arron, and especially to Laura, for introducing us to their incredibly warm and welcoming family in Kansas, and trusting us not to do anything dumb!
amazing pics id love to be in the top family portrait looks really well
-
yous checking into a hotel now and going to wait for the storm to pass over just noticing on the video??

Hi Guys
We now have confirmation that the 4th Netweather Summer Storm Chasers BBQ Will be held on The Weekend of the 21st and 22nd July in or Near Gosport (Hampshire).
Paul Harvey (Aka The Storm Fisherman) has kindly accepted the Mantle from Cumbria (2011) Evesham (2010) and SE Essex (2009) and will I am sure post up all the details of the exact location in the next few weeks. After the last 2 successes of the Camping Theme we will once again become Boy Scouts and Brownies in erecting Tents and BBQ's.
Think I am right in thinking this years location also has a Sea View of the Solent/English Channel so if we can get a Plume event it could be emotional!
Regards
