Chase Day 22 Discussion - MODERATE Risk TX/OK/KS

Beautiful wall cloud hugging the ground on the storm NW of Purcell near the I-35, this looks like it could drop soon too. Looks like Norman may have dodged this one for now.

 

Bit ominous that it's heading over Slaughterville!!

Agreed - Lawton/Rush Springs cell the dominant product just now - mid level rotation and tennis ball hail

Also watch new cells forming to the SW of this.

Yep, sods law dictates that they took the warning off it about 15 minutes ago.

well in range of our selected cell - not looking as good as it did but others around

According to News 9, wall cloud is reorganising, and cell is heading between Bray and Cox City..

Storm behind the Rush Springs cell between Marlow and Lawton dropping a wall cloud now..

[robt]

Cell to East of Marlow has gone Tornado Warned.

[robt]

Possible TN in Marlow.

Hey all.

 

not sure if velocities still look not so good there - some pretty contrasting colours just nw of marlow now on grl3 - Wall cloud looks superb!

[robt]

Chasers report very low Wall Cloud in Marlow.

[samadamsuk]

looks like backed surface winds are at a bit of a premium tonight - MArlow area is backed currently though -

[robt]

2nd report of rotation near Velma..

[robt]

Seems possible that theres a rainwrapped TN in Marlow..

[samadamsuk]

interesting to see if anything fires upwind of OK city as those ofb's run into the dryline -

[robt]

Listening to News 9, large hail in Cox City, and Alma..

[robt]

It seems that both storms joining then splitting has 'recharged' them so to speak.

[samadamsuk]

grapefruit sized hail! lol

[robt]

News 9 helicopter shows a couple of interesting wall clouds.. 

 

Grapefruit hail? Ouch.

[samadamsuk]

looks like its ingested a cell from the south, and inflows improving maybe http://climate.cod.edu/data/surface/US_zoom/contour/current/USZOOM.fronts.gif

[robt]

Reports of TN on ground in Bray.

[samadamsuk]

blimey. Where from Robt ?

mid south storm chasers are on the r-hand storm - amazing inflow into the wall cloud -

[robt]

News 9 reporting it.

[robt]

Next stop - basketballs lol. Really big hail being reported. Nice seeing the Bray cell sip some water from that lake, refuelling and trying again for a tornado. Rising motion is incredible.

First time in ages I've actually seen it caught on camera as well..

[samadamsuk]

haha. Yep Weather09 - need a crash helmet AND a neck brace to be out in those!

 

Good coverage on that channel - Thanks Rob
