we are sitting in hill city with the mother ship of super cells skimming past us with rotion markers the bredth of the storm we can not believe the town has not got there tornado siriens on

cone tornado on the ground just west of Oxie have it on camara I hope this is the second twister of the day we are navigating our way round tornado damage we are going to sit in Oxie waiting for the next cell to come up Ian

This is Andy posting on Ian's account. We have just seen the most amazing rotation - Paul has captured the whole caboodle on videocam and everybody says it was the strongest they've ever seen. The tornado touched down just outside Hoxie at 5:20 CDT, and the video briefly shows the debris cloud. Unfortunately we then got involved in a nasty dirt track that swallowed all 3 cars whole. I'm with Nick and Paul travelling back to paved road, the ITV man has been rescued by the local farmer and Dave Ewoldt/Ian/Tom were back with Ian's car waiting for rescue. Photos later but Nick, Ian and myself are covered in mud, and we are currently back at the main paved road just outside of Hoxie, slap bang in the middle of two monster cells. Pray for us :lol: Andy

we were near the reported tornado in gove we are just trying to find a good intersept point maybe have something on camara will check later

we are just about on the I70 on the gove and sheridan county border watching a meso to our left

we stopped to watch the cell on 24 just by seibert and the storm forms a meso just above our heads we thought we were going to be tornado damage thankfuly it passes over we start to head east to get a good vantige point and just before we got to Vona we spotted a tornado on the ground out of the back of the car me and Paul saw it I frantickly tried to get a shot off with my camara but the light was not good enough for the shot we will check but were not sure we then sat and watched it try and produce another we then dashed east trying to outrun the updraft and Paul has bagged some amazing lightning bolts we hope to post up te pictures soon we will continue to watch the lightning show for a while then head further east or the night what an amazing days chasing i'm sure the guys will post once we get a base camp for the night Ian

we are sitting just north of the I70 watching a meso form and we can see it starting to rotate as i type thers no markers on barons but theres no mistaking what where watching will keep you all posted

we are just about to core punch a cell with three areas of rotation on barons the cell is in kit carson county near the I70 Ian

we have had fun today chasing a few cells they were never going to produce tornados so was able to core punch without worrying to much currently in north east CO getting ready to punch a few more cores Ian

very much recomended though i'd make sure you've not just eaten as you run the risk of throwing up and that would be not do at all the rep would take a dive we will have to give a go some time when your next local to us

Paul S On Ians Account We are sat on a dirt track just west of Burlington and have a Developing Supercell literally 15 miles in front of us, explosive Updraughts and this is going to move just North of us, the 1st cell of the day Paul S

the boiler maker was not to bad though I was rather full after a great meal and a fair few beers I would not advise that to be your main drink for the evening if you stll want to be walking upright at the end Im glad I managed it though I could not let the team down could I!
