07/03/09 NOW: KS, NE, CO

[Mark Blue]

We are closing in on the cells that have gone up north of Hays and Russell KS. From the north they are looking very robust and nice. Towering CU with nice anvils and growing by the minute. The latest MD 1417 has me feeling very hopeful about our chances with the rest of today's chase.

Figured I'd share... I've been making a program that 3d renders level 3 radar. Here's a screen shot of the severe storms north of hays.

Currently sitting in Concordia, KS. Tornado watch issued now and storms becoming much better organized to my west. Severe T-Storm warning on the cell in Mitchell county SW of Beloit. I'm sitting tight for the moment as I'm not quite ready to pull the trigger on any particular cell yet...gonna give it a few more minutes.

There is a boundary from PNC to 10 W ICT to HUT to 15 W. SLN. It may extend into the large cell W of CNK. PRESFR near that cell with nice concentration of SIG TOR values (up to 6+) ahead of it.

We are on the storm in Concordia too and it appears to be turning into a beast! Serious CG lightning right now. We are going to beat it east on 24 to get a better vantage point.

tornado watch until 12 am for Brown County , KS

Coming back from Overland Park, KS .

This watch was just posted around 9 pm. Brown County is north of Topeka and in NE most Kansas.

I might shoot up there but I don't fancy chasing in the dark
