Day 4 - HP Beasts
Filed under: Chasing
Posted by: John @ 1:40 am
Well, today was a Moderate Risk day that just didn’t pan out.  It sounds
like there was a tornado late tonight well after dark, but nothing really
photogenic in the tornadic department during daylight.  I’ve heard a few reports
of tornadoes from people, but I’m not convinced yet…  Lots o’ crazy motion
really near the ground, but who knows what goes for a tornado now…  ;-)
 
Jamie and I started out in Wichita today and headed Southwest.  We got
on the storm near Buffalo, OK, that got close to producing a tornado a couple
times.  That storm started to look not so great, so we dropped south to Lipscomb
county, TX.  Near the city of Lipscomb are where the last half of the pictures
are from.  I had to include the one picture of a news helicopter overhead.  We
had two of them throughout the chase.

Got in the hotel late last night so didn’t post.  We were on the gorgeous supercell near Hill City, KS, along with tons of other chasers.  Got great shots, a few of which I poster here:
