Anthony, KS Storm Chase - April 2nd, 2014

4/4/2014

0 Comments

 
Officially it was the second chase of the season, but to me it was the first real chase of the 2014 Spring season.  A warm front was advancing its way northward while a dryline was pushing its way eastward, creating conditions for a stormy day.  A tornado watch had been issued for the area around 3pm and it would last until 10pm for a sliver of territory ranging from Western Oklahoma all the way up to Eastern Missouri, but there was no guarantee that there would be any storms at all.  I drove north through Kingfisher, up to Hennessey where I made my first stop of the day.  After looking at the forecast models again, I figured the storms would fire a little farther north so I drove up to Helena and ultimately ended up along the Oklahoma/Kansas border when the first storm developed.  I raced north only to see it give way to a second storm that had developed to the southwest.  I then drove west of Anthony, KS and waited for it to come to me.  It was a fairly quick moving storm but was heading more n/ne so I was able to intercept it fairly easily.   I ended up getting a lot of good photos and although I didn't see any tornadic activity the chase was far from a bust.  I also ended up getting some video of a wall of dust coming at me from the downburst of winds underneath the storm.
