(Yawn)
The morning SPC outlook maps looked like this:
CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK:
TORNADO OUTLOOK:
- Started along side I-70 in central Kansas
- Wandered down to Chanute, KS and Fort Scott, KS. Tried a shortcut down Scott Road only to discover it was washed out. I got practice rocking the van out of one rut and into the next until we could back down the road. (It’s now obvious to place less trust in Scot’s namesake than Scott himself. We watch the sky and the radar for a while.
- Meandered to Nevada (“neh-VAY-da”), Missouri, then back into Kansas.
- Got some beautiful late day shots of our storm (and that’s basically all we got besides rain). I’ll add the pictures when I get time on the road (since I’m not driving again until DAY 16 or so).
- Checked into the Super 8 Motel in Pittsburg, KS. Got a bit of a lightning show as a severe storm passed to our south.
