A low key supercell day up northwest of Woodward turned into a 3 tornado day. None of the tornadoes were anything to write home about, but a nice little fall setup with not a lot of fanfare. All 3 tornadoes were witnessed in the Oklahoma panhandle, with the first and last ones being along the state borders with Kansas and Texas respectively.
Flow from the northwest as well as a narrow corridor of theta-e rich/moist and unstable provided just the spark that was needed. The RAP seemed to handle things pretty well throughout the day. Here's a picture of the third tornado at the Oklahoma/Texas State Line
I've included a lot more on my website write up of the Oklahoma Panhandle supercell.
