20 years ago: The November 15 1988 Texas storms

[Tim Vasquez]

I just looked at the calendar and saw that 11/15/88 happened 20 years ago. This was some sort of MCS that developed over Dallas-Fort Worth during the early afternoon and moved into the Bonham/Greenville/Kaufman area by late afternoon. I can't recall if there were any tornadoes with this system, but I didn't see any. Well, it WAS 1988 so that's one strike against them.

Some assorted pics I took that day in Collin and Dallas county:

Looking west at developing towers (note fat anvil overhead)

Looking east at anvil streaming westward

Updraft area

Looking east at departing storms

Does it ring a bell with anyone else?
