9/28/07 REPORTS: KS

[Mike Umscheid]

Yesterday was a successful chase in western Kansas. It took awhile for storms to become organized into supercell structures, but I finally intercepted an HP supercell north of Scott State Lake north of Scott City and followed it east as it began to get dark towards the Healy area. After dark, another brief supercell formed between Dighton and Scott City, and I had some fairly nice success in photographing lightning illuminated structure with this storm (the last photo shown of the 3 below). I’ll write a little more detailed account later, but right now, I need to get ready for today’s chase.

I too was chasing this storm in western Kansas, I got a glimpse of the tornado south of I80 near monument rocks. Was a long skinny rope tornado. I continued to chase this storm through the night, was some of the most intense lightning I've seen in a while. Ill get a picture up later.
