Armed with only an iphone, I largely just took the storm in, and enjoyed it immensley, we had a great laugh on the roof of that car park, some of the bombs that were going on around us were spectacular ! And what a display at sunset, wow !
Great end to tour 1
-
Yep, great end to a weird day. Thanks again guys
Good luck tour 2 !
-
Nice one
Can I ask how close you were to the storm when you took those pictures? I was wondering because those bolts of lightning look rather dangerous
Thanks mate, we were pretty close, we were between two storms really, trying to keep out of the precip, Tom and Ian did a great job putting us in the right place to catch the action without being in the firing line, and avoiding the odd burning building
-
Afew from me too, well worth the early start,
thanks guys for getting up v early and getting us there
Craig.

Great vid Pat, that gets u in the mood for it eh !!!
-
This might be an option I guess, http://www.nwc.ou.edu/tourdetails.php, they do ask for booking to be two weeks in advance tho, but though I'd throw it out there anyway, be nice to see where the magic happens (or does'nt
) -

Positive thinking Quentin, two weeks before tour 3 last year the outlook was bleak, but looked what happened on the 19th !! Keep the faith
-
Can I just ask what flights and what day do the following land on Tour 1
Craig
Will
Mark
I am pretty sure everyone else will be there a day early (Thurs 28th April) think Craig might be as well, just need to know who to collect from the airport as the others will probably meet us on the Thursday night for a meal etc
Thanx in Advance
Paul S
Hi Paul, I land at DFW at 1.40 PM on the 28th on AA flight 51, stayin at the best western

You dont want to see the New CFS USA Charts Netweather has access too, had a peek and would love to tell you what the 30th April to 9th May shows but Ian Michaelwaite has told me to keep stumm!
He said he might post some charts up in the next few days before his skiing trip.
Good or Bad........Hmmmm I wonder

In that case, happy new year buddy, it's gonna be a goodun!
