TODAYS SEMI CHASE
I would have targeted the Edmond Oklahoma area if I hadnt had class today until 3pm so I opted to sit in Wichita Falls noting the dryline was on top of me basically. I chased the cell that moved from central Archer County into Clay County Texas and noted some pretty hail shafts...very close CGs as well as a brief wall cloud along the Archer Clay County line. Storm appeared at times high based and low topped then got its act together but became more outflowish. I opted to let the storm go at dark. It was a nice little backyard chase and in November so cant complain. I did see some hail on the roadways between quarters and a few golfballs. Also noted some outflow to 60 mph. Took little of any video and or pics tho. I should have sat back behind the storm and did timelapse of the updraft but I wanted to get into it a tad being the last storm of the year perhaps. We eed the rain tho so hopefully the Sunday system will do that at least. Thanks to Jeff Papak for some Nowcasting and Jeremy Wilson for some other views of the storm.
