    ok that was funny..........

    After action report:
    Lots of rain, some limbs down at my house (nothing really new here as I have 2 Sycamores and 2 maples....which shed branches like my GSP sheds hair) and by the time I got home ( I live in the Riverside area of Wichita) the sun was out.....still pouring as I pulled into the drive. You have to love supercells that travel at 60 MPH, you dont have to worry long.

    Anyway I knew we were in for it when Reed Timmer a storm chaser thats also part of that Discovery channel show, was tracking this storm system......I knew it could be a "flavorful" day. So, finally Tornado season comes to Kansas, as april was pretty much nothing, may should get interesting........

    See yall in Sector Space......good hunting!

    Looking like this line (2 tornado warned cells) will track north and west of Wichita, but its a freight train effect along the dry line.....and its humid as all heck...so its going to be an interesting night

    technically, Oz is in Kansas. Dorothy was knocked out so OZ was all in her head, which was laying in Kansas :D

    Yep, I would probably be dead or severely injured if it hadn't moved slightly east of me at the last second. I could hear it and the trees were going crazy. I locked myself in a bathroom and waited it out while my electricity went out.
