Have literally just got back home just now, Ozzie is on his way to Rugby as we speak, flight was only 8 hours 15 minutes on the way back thanks to the good ol JET Stream, 1 hour flight from Corpus Christi to Dallas was good as well, only flew at 20,000 feet so we got to look at everywhere we chased over the last 3 weeks. Been up for 19 hours so my bed is calling soon.

Welcome back!! Nowt good about the 'good' ol jet stream (ha ha) apart from gettin u'z home quicker it needs to shove off north!!!

Shame about the last few days with the block in place but at least you got a 'canny' rest sun and sand..oh and not forgettin the booze!!

[kold weather]

All I can say is hope you had a good time out there, some great photos that you lot took.

Now have a good sleep, I think you deserve it!

[I can't believe it's not better]

There's no place like home

[Stuart]

Welcome home I hope you have a nice time

Thanks Paul and all, the first 10 days were amazing, just looking at the videos and trying to choose which ones to upload for you all, the last 8 days were not my sort of holiday but out of 18 days we chasing 10 and had 8 down days, so not bad, If i had to choose 1 Storm in would be the Kent County Supercell which had 17 Meso's at one point and produced the Tornado Picture, scariest moment would have to be sitting in Coalgate (Ok) during 45 minutes of Wailing Tornado Sirens under a Garage Roof being pounded by Hailstones, Mississippi was also bad as we lost radar quite a bit and driving visibility was non-existant, best Lightning display was Brownwood (TX) and also the same place had earlier had the Coleman County Supercell and Bow Echoe all on the same night. Corpus Christi was a good storm and the relax after on the beach for 3 days were nice, I think we were lucky with the start of May and this will be the 2nd Straight below par May on the trot, so next year cannot be missed.
