April 20 TX lais·sez-faire chase & Yesterday
Added 2023-04-20 16:22:18 +0000 UTCLooks like a line of storms will push through Texas tonight. Current plan is to be well through DFW before 5PM traffic peaks and see what's what then.
YESTERDAY early afternoon I stopped in Wichita Kansas and deeply pondered driving 2.5 hours back to OKC for the wild tornado potential there. Regardless, the side-line show in Kansas was a ton of fun. Here are some sneak peek raw video grabs from last night...
I love the shot of the nightime tornado while driving down mainstream. This last tornado appeared significant as it creeped into the Flint Hills of Kansas. I suspect lots of spiders and lizards were disturbed as it flipped over some sizable stones.
The speeding ticket I got in the middle of nowhere Kansas yesterday (81 in a 65) will cost $275. The windshield $130. The two nights at the cheaper Hamptons $120 each plus a few tanks of gas made this trip quite expensive, BUT, I have you guys to keep this fun ship sailing. Thanks again and again for all you do.

2023-04-20 22:07:35 +0000 UTCSorry about the windshield and ticket, but you got some nice captures. West seem right TX16 to I35 San Saba back to the east seems like a good play. Temps a starting to spike around 88-90 and things are really popping. Good luck chasers
