TBH, If I was on this cell I'd call it a night.

Heaviest rotation is under 50dBZ of rain and light is fading fast.

Lots of people are it looks like. We are searching for a hotel.

I hope they have some DOW trucks on it. We'll probably find out later the TIV has been in it the entire time. lol

Think they said they were near it but not in it.

There was a DOW truck scanning on Tony Mesias' cam, looked like a few miles from the tornado.

That's a pretty tight shot of the base when it was a cone IMO. It was a wedge I guess but at times it looked more wedge than it was.. Tor was mainly on the left side of the rain curtain.

It'll be interesting to see how tomorrow plays out. There's significantly more upper-air support across Kansas tomorrow, but instability is lower and the approaching speed maximum may produce a ton of crapvection. Nonetheless, wind shear is definitely supportive of significant tornadoes.

Pretty major couplet west of Amarillo with a new supercell that has fired there.

 

It does look good on radar....

Fairly significant cone tornado with this storm a few minutes ago via a member of my team.

I believe that based on the radar signature.

I did the upslope play in CO/NE and it was just spectacular LP structure all day long. Lots of very visible rotation and tor warnings, but these storms were high based and had little chance of putting anything down (other than some golf ball hail that smacked us).

Kind of disappointed to have missed the tornadoes, especially since I woke up in Salina this morning, but the structure on the upslope play was epic and made up for it somewhat.

Will post pictures later.
