Bonus chase day for the newbies and Tornado watch already issued for where we are.

 

Could be messy structures again, hopeful to grab a nado or two

Tornado warned storm in sight!


Can't seem to get the stream running.

 

Running fine here Quentin, perhaps refresh the page to see if that helps.

Stream is fantastic quality again, easily rivals the ones available on TVN.

Looks very messy on radar - especially compared to last night. Any tornado likely to be rain wrapped

Yes, all the streams on this supercell looking uniform grey and very wet. With parts of Oklahoma already looking like seeing their wettest May on record, there most be a lot moisture in the air this year, making up for the drought they've had in this part of the southern Plains until recently.

Nice for the team to get in a drier spot now to see better what's going on!

Misty eyes! That storm has a moderate couplet to 1.5deg, so not just at the base.
I wonder whether the cell moving into the south of Archer county is a bit cleaner and more likely in the next hour. Mind you, don't take my word for it - I had a habit of stopping for gas whilst tornados were on the ground!

Are the storms further south in clearer air such as the one west of Newcastle that is severely warned? Worth a try? (but no signature currently)

Any chance you can turn the car so we can see what you are seeing, paul is smiling so something is going down.

Ta.

That couplet remains so always a chance that there is something worthwhile.
