Expected Tornado Outbreak - April 27
🕑 Added 2024-04-27 14:14:15 +0000 UTCGood Morning Patrons,
Lots of swinging emotions to process. I hope everyone is safe and we didn't lose any loved ones. Things are firing up early today and I'm out of range a bit in Central Kansas. I'm going to blast south into Oklahoma and then do some misanalysis if time allows, however I'm anticipating jumping on the first Tornado warned cells I can reach.
I encourage chasers and myself to up the patience today. There will be a lot of emotional and distracted drivers out there.
Yesterday, strong wording by the SPC describing discrete supercells reined my into Kansas and Missouri. Though wrestling with roads and positioning I managed to confirm 4 tornadoes and many strong rainy circulations. I was tuned out of social media and just enjoyed a long day of chasing tornadoes that didn't appear to be killers. Here are a few video screen shots of my scores.
Good luck Chasers!
ABOVE: The funnel top left had a decent debris spin up. Count this as 2.
Would have been nice to be closer to those. below is my third obvious tornado. Would have been nice to be closer and not racing.
Got close to this next one...

This thing is continuing... @ 0013 CDT they've issued a PDS confirmed large tornado on the ground near Mill Creek Oklahoma

Rest up, Hank. A couple days of serious chasing in a row! Amazing that the system causing the storms you chase in Texas is the same one dropping the rain on us in Wisconsin.

Tonight was just a high precipitation mess, but one can't deny the beautiful lightning shows!

Missed the tornado in Texas. After that might have gotten a rain wrapped burrito in the rear cam while escaping. Gonna find a hotel and get ready for tomorrow. Thanks everyone.

Anyone checking out the storm NW of Ardmore, OK? Looks pretty ominous...

Hope you didn't get stuck in a ditch like Reed did!

Committing to north Texas cells. Might be late

Nice shots!

Hank, I’m torn between wishing you a productive chase and hoping that storms don’t blossom. I’ve decided to hope for beautiful low precipitation 🌪️ storms over farm fields. Watch out for maniacs on the road.

Just got to OKC, good luck today Hank, stay safe!
