The Dude Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 That should be a nice spot to watch supercells pass 20-30 miles to their east Those storms already in Missouri have too much of a head start. I'd be inclined to shoot down to 54 to get east fast to get in position for those Oklahoma storms, but I'm sure that's a lot easier said than done.

k*** Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 you guys should have gone around the beltway of KC and got into position from the north and east Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HurricaneJosh Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Wow-- it sounds complicated. The nice thing about a 'cane is there's just one core to chase. It may wobble and it may fall apart-- but there's a single, consolidated, durable focal point to the energy. (And I'm not suggesting 'cane chasing is easier-- it's a total nightmare in its own way.) Good luck, guys-- I hope you get some action today! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokeEater Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 problem is the western ones collapsed as the eastern ones went up.. id maybe be inclined to target the one moving up from the south but i dunno what im doing. Storms coming into MO from OK, aren't collapsing, the one about to cross the border just went TW'd, and is strengthening by the minute. You guys really should have went south.

The Dude Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 they still need longitude before they head south if that's what they choose....where they are now is useless Not much in the way of roads south until they get to the lake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arnold214 Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 Rip south on 13 and try to get to Dunnegan and hopefully that big mofo ne of joplin meets you there (and hope that it holds together). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arnold214 Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 The driving south of Louisburg is going to become very ****ty...bit conglomerate of storms about to cross 65 between Louisburg and Bufflao. Probably blinding rain and small hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
