5/26/19: Storm Chase Follow-Up

We headed southeast towards the KS/OK border. We had initially targeted just east of Wichita, but then decided to dip into Oklahoma where storms were firing along the dryline. We got on a cell near Marshall, OK, which was briefly … Continue reading

5/24/19: Storm Chase Follow-Up
We had to break out from the clouds, once again. We were able to find a little blue sky for a few minutes: We ended up diving south through Plainview as the first cells moved out from the I-27 corridor. … Continue reading

Today was a bit of a disappointing day in terms of storm chasing. For all the hoopla, it was a hard chase day. We started out by simply trying to avoid the thick haze. There was nowhere to avoid it, … Continue reading
