Three Years Ago… Tornadoes in Northwest Oklahoma!
Sometimes it’s just great to go back and reminisce! Today is one of those days. Since it’s been pretty quiet lately, the best thing I can do is look back and remember my early days of chasing. I might not have shot the best video back then, but I sure saw some great tornadoes!
This was a pretty stressful chase day! I started the day in Wichita, KS. I got some wild hair that I may play the warm front, so I went up to freakin’ Hays KS early in the morning! After that, I quickly decided to get back south. I crossed through some heavy rain in Lacrosse, KS. Then caught a storm in southern Oklahoma. After ditching both of them, they eventually went onto produce tornadoes. I was frustrated.
Finally that evening in Cherokee, OK we got some decent tornadoes, then a monster wedge near Manchester, OK. A crazy, stressful chase for sure!
I didn’t get the best tornado of the day though.. That formed from the rain shower I left earlier.. Check out the video from the late TWISTEX team from near Salina, KS. Truly an incredible video and tornado!
