Ha! Didn't expect to find a picture of me here.** I'm the tall guy closest to the camera (in front of the fence) looking at Howard Bluestein. About 10 minutes after that picture was taken, that same storm we're all staring at destroyed my driver side mirror with baseball sized hail. I got distracted and wanted to meet Dr. Bluestein. Definite loss of situational awareness.

In fact, here I am at the fence.

Sorry for the derail. Here's another shot of the Felt tornado, to contribute.

Also, these aren't the greatest photos. This was right before I bought a decent camera and so they're from an iPhone 6s.

**I know. We all chase so I guess it's inevitable that we sometimes show up in each others photos. I'm new and easily amused.

I just read the rules ... sorry I guess my photo submissions are not correct. But please add July 7th 2016 Eureka Kansas to the event list.

We saw the highest rated tornado ever to hit Kansas in July and a high end EF-2 go through the town on this day with 3-4 tornadoes total so worth the add.

I will ask Taylor and Jacob (In my truck this event) to add photos or a summary if needed.

Just an update to bump this post. We're in the heart of storm season, but if you have a "down day" and have chasing on the brain, we could use your help in writing chase day summaries for the Storm Chasing Event Archive. Take a look at what we've got so far:

Feel free to post here or email me at [email protected]

Thanks in advance!

I sent some photos and radar images for 6/12/17. at [email protected], but i'm not sure if email ended up in junk folder or something else, so i will post here.

Here are a couple more that should be added I think.

7-1-15 Lee Summit MO tornado
4-30-19 Wheaton MO tornadoes

I can help with tornado photos for quite a few dates if you still need them @Dan Robinson

 

[Dan Robinson]

James, thanks, I'll add those dates. If you have photos for any of the dates that don't have any that would be awesome, thanks!!

 

[James Wilson]

Here are a few to get started that I had at work. The name of the file is the event.
