Name that date - 2009/2010 edition - #1

Next version. This one should be a little harder, but I'll start off with a clue: the actual correct radar location is not far from the one shown.

Gotcha both! It is not May 25th 2008. Notice the resolution on the image. It is in legacy mode, so it is pre-late-May-2008 (and this hint should tell you what the actual radar site is if you know the schedule on which various sites upgraded).
 
No more guesses?

Then two more hints: The actual image is indeed from KDMX, and this is a date that Roger Hill would have a lot to say about.
 
May 8th, 2004 Dallas County? I remember this event vaguely. I think I had a job interview on that day and remember thinking about the storms west of Des Moines. I do remember after returning home that there was a tornado in Dallas County. I did cheat though and looked at his site and the only other day before 2008 that I could find where Roger chased in central Iowa was May 11th, 2000 which was a big day for him.
 
Yeah, I realized that after a few minutes. It is indeed May 11th, 2000. I thought it was 2001. Good job Danny.
