Storm Chase - 19 June 2018

[Mike Upjohn]

Hey guys,

Wanted to post some stuff I caught today, so started the thread. Headed from Columbus, NE down the I-80 towards Denver, and got on a tornado warned storm near Hoyt, CO, which put down a beautiful tornado near Hoyt, CO.

Will upload more pictures later! Celebratory steak in Burlington, CO.

Mike.

Unfortunately due ti technical difficulties beyond our control we could not stream, which was a tragedy , so I piggy backed some wifi and did some FB live.  I will send them to NW and hopefully they can post them. 

I did video too so will post them once I can.

The tornado sirens were going off ahead of the monster storm.

Brilliant photos taken by Mark and by Mike - if that done want to make you go storm chasing , nothing will.
