Chase 2010 - Day 22 Discussion

[AudMun]

Safely here now ensconsced in the Best Western. Uneventful flight and slept for most of it! Grateful that this time walking out of the Terminal wasn't like walking into a brick wall because of the heat! Sorry to hear about Danny's probs. I can empathise!

The Dumas storm is growing very quickly and already looks impressive on the streaming.

The Dumas cell will pass over the team's current position - attached radar is a bit behind. Rapid development on this one.

A1 position there folks and best feed I can find on this one. Core should pass just to your north. Improving signature.

Looks impressive on tornadoVideos.net as well as the Netweather team - shame no sound - enjoyed that before - great viewing though!
