Chase Vacation 
Friday, May 30, 2008, 01:04 AM
The chase vacation really went well, we say between 4 and 6 tornadoes from a large wedge to a tiny rope. My pictures suck, I just upgraded to a new HD video camera so I was trying to get a custom to it. Needless to say most of the video sucks!

But here are some good clips of what I have.

A week of chasing is under way!

I’m in a Holiday Inn express in Andover, KS with Genaro Estrada. We have been going over the model data all evening. It’s hard to pinpoint things, but we are looking at NC OK for Wednesday 5-21 and NW KS / SW NE Thursday 5-22. It looks like we could see a really nice outbreak with this giant trough that’s going to rip through the plains!

Well stay tuned for more updates!

Twice in one week!!!!

What are the chances! Twice in one week we chased the obvious target! Twice we had tornadic storms with in 20miles of home!!!!!!

Geez. Oh well if chasing was easy no one would do it!

Well at least it wasn’t just us that picked out South Central Oklahoma as the target! Around 3:30 spotter network was showing 30 chasers South of OKC! Wow, I even got a phone call from the counties Emergency Manager welcoming us to the county. It wasn’t a total loss we talked with the ROTATE crew as they where wasting away at some gas station right off I 35. It sounds like they are going to have quite the show this year.

That’s all I have to report, other then I will be on the road chasing starting May 18th
