Taken last night by Jennifer Brindley (Face of a Storm) -
AVE IT!
Good luck for today
-
Nicely done guys! Already missing being out there
-
heading east today towards hays on the I 70 will keep you all posted of our progress
-
No chase today?
-
Started the day in Chadron, NE and had to make the long drive back towards Dallas Fort Worth ready for flights back on Monday. The slight risk extended from MN down to Central Kansas with a cold front being the main focus point. Our target was to get to Norman, OK, some 800 odd miles away and on the way down the I135 I noticed some tops going up just south of McPherson, KS. There seemed to be some kind of outflow boundary and storms initiated as small cells but fairly quickly merged in to one LP supercell just east of Hutchinson moving ESE along another boundary that was interacting with the first one! As we turned west at Newton we got a great view of a wall cloud and visible rotation but alas she just cound not do it. Followed it down to a few miles west of Wichita where we set up the cameras and managed to get a fair few snaps of some anvil zits and crawlers
Had food in Wichita and a few beers and now on the road to Norman. Will hopefully get some pics up either tonight or in the morning.
I'd like to say a big thanks to Paul, John, Tom and Nick and of course all the guests for making these two trips an amazing experience again and hopefully look forward to doing it all again next year!
Tom says bye for now and has said to watch this space for Chicken George Probe MK1
Also he passes big thanks on to all the team and all the guests for making it another storming chase season for him Bye for now!

Okay we're done, got some more lightning from an LP cell south of McPherson, KS. Nice to end the tour with a storm
Heading for food in Wichita and then hauk it down to Oklahoma Will be about 800 miles odd today including a wee chase
-
Thanks for that Tony, I'll be pitching in as much as I can when I get back
-
Just seen the flooding at Talybont on news 24, we used to have a member there, hope he's ok.
That's me! Currently storm chasing in the USA with the Netweather team, bloody typical I miss this! Woke up this morning to see The Weather Channel showing a clip of a truck pushing a car around morrisons roundabout, very bizzare in the middle of North Dakota lol! Luckily I'm at the top end of the village so our house escaped but there's a fair few houses badly affected. Home on Tuesday so will be able to see for myself, looked very bad though from the pics
-
Heading towards Rapid City now for some food, hopefully get some lightening off the back of these small storms
Just driven through Sturgis, stunning town -
Right sorted, off to get the others and see what we can get out of today other than a suntan
-
Well today is over, these stupid blooming cars
One of them has locked all the doors with the car running, apparently a comment fault on these piece of rubish cars FUMING Been waiting almost 2 hours for someone to come out and sort it only for them to say after 2 hours there's not enough location info to find us, we're sat inbetween the north dakota and south dakota sign lol! Can't be that hard to find Waiting on the local locksmith now and if that fails................
-
Okay we're off, models have not panned out for today further north, probably for the best to be honest as we need to start heading back towards Dallas. Initially heading to south central south dakota somewhere on the I90 and will then take a check on data etc
Extreme flooding back home in my town, typical!
-
lol! Still treking north, long old slog this is... Stream should be back up after no internet for hours. Not too sure on what's going to happen today but at least we're getting closer for tomorrows risk
-
Making our way north now after less than 4 hours kip for some
Aiming to get to the SPC's 5% tornado risk bullseye just in time in MT/ND/SD border region -
Morning! Started the day off in Wyoming and headed south to play the slight risk. Missed out on a cell that dropped a tornado in Wyoming but got the beast that tracked south from Byers, CO. Caught a cone tornado and insane structure near Calhan. Also got cored with baseball sized hail getting away from this thing to head north for todays risk and ended up with two cars getting some decent hail dents and one getting a cracked windshield
Couple of stitches and some video of the cone and core

Yup!
Don't know if we'll manage to get pics and video up tonight. Got a 2 hour + drive to churn off some miles and then another load in the morning. Hopefully the slight risk will get pushed south and we won't have far to go -
Woohoo! Tornado, MASSIVE hail and a cracked windshield!
-
Wow what insane structure on this cell, heading right in to it too
-
Making a play for the cell that has fired near Byers, CO. We didn't want to leave the Colorado area, Dallas
-
Heading east fro Fort Collins, CO. Trying to keep all areas in play :/
-
Okay it's time to head south, we've given Wyoming a chance but now we're off to NE Colorado
-
Fixed again zzzzz
Tornado watch already and we're in the middle of it
DISCUSSION...CONVECTION IS DEVELOPING FROM SERN WY INTO THE
FOOTHILLS OF NRN CO IN ADVANCE OF TWO SHORT WAVE TROUGHS MOVING
ACROSS THE NRN AND CENTRAL ROCKIES. LOW LEVEL MOISTURE HAS RETURNED
WWD TO THE EDGE OF THE HIGHER TERRAIN WITH SURFACE DEW POINTS IN THE
50S. VISIBLE IMAGERY SHOWS CLOUDS DIMINISHING OVER NERN CO AND
BREAKS DEVELOPING OVER SERN WY...WHICH WILL PROMOTE STRONG AFTERNOON
HEATING AND FURTHER DESTABILIZATION. FAVORABLY LOW LCL HEIGHTS AND
INCREASING VERTICAL SHEAR THIS AFTERNOON INDICATE POTENTIAL FOR
SUPERCELLS TO DEVELOP CAPABLE OF PRODUCING LARGE HAIL...STRONG WIND
GUSTS..AND POSSIBLY SEVERAL TORNADOES. STORMS WILL GRADUALLY
DEVELOP EWD WITH TIME AS THE SHORT WAVE TROUGHS CONTINUE TOWARD THE
HIGH PLAINS.

Hopefully going to have 2 plays today
MD just been issued for eastern Wyoming so holding fire to see what happens here and then later on in to NE Colorado
