Off day today. The only storms are too far east in non-chasable country. So, today we are going to to some sight seeing. The twister museum. Hooker, Oklahoma, and then Greensburg, KS to see where the EF5 went through 5 years ago. Damage can still be seen. We will spend the night in Goodland, KS to potentially play some upslope in NE Colorado/SE Wyoming/NW Nebraska. I will have some pictures up later this evening, from the sight seeing today. We need a break after yesterday.

Our professor, Bart Wolf, made a really good point. Anyone can chase storms once they form, but it takes good forecasting to be there right when they form.

Still excited about the tornado yesterday, but the rest of the week looks favorable for more severe weather, so we are not done yet!
