This one kind of caught me off guard...
Started out the day not expecting much at all, then storms fired along a "cold pool" setup and move in an unorthodox direction for the NE to the southwest.
Ran out north of Sherman towards Pottsboro and met up with the clouds on Plainview road just east of Enterprise road. Took a lot of great pictures of textbook shelf clouds and outflow boundaries. Once the storm caught up, I clocked winds of 71mph and another gust of 77mph. The front of the storm came through so I proceeded back to Sherman, I wasn't expecting to go very far. Got over towards FM1417 and Lamberth road when what I believe to be a microburst happend and clocked another wind of 71mph.
All in all was a good day. I needed a short trip like this in a bad kind of way.
I'll get my pictures posted later tonight/tomorrow.
