Oh, the life in Kansas






I love being out on the road chasing these storms. What a life!


First of all, I got a shout out on WREX in Rockford, Ill as one of my classmates broadcast about
our storm chase. Here is the link.


Today had a few storms pop, but nothing got too exciting til nightfall. A large tornado was seen near Goodland, KS, but it was after dark, so we were not able to see anything. Today shows that there can be storms popping but you might never get a good perspective, or they might not go tornadic even if you think they will. That is the point of vortex2.

On our way down tonight we passed the TIV and i caught a picture of it here.

Towards the end of the day we got stuck on a dirt road which had turned to mud. We had to push all 5 vehicles out of the mud and no one was wearing shoes by the end.
Oh the joys of chasing.

Tomorrow looks to be the last good day of chasing back up in south dakota. Hopefully we can have the same luck as last time.

Goodnight
