Tornado Chasing

Chasecation 2013 Day 4 – A leisurely stroll through Texas

We started the day not expecting much as far as tornadoes within our target area of central Texas. Persistent overcast and showers in the warm sector pretty much killed any hopes of a tornado as the cold front/cold pool undercutting the storms sealed the deal on not getting any tornadoes. But being on our chasecation, we decided to go for it anyway and got on one of the best storms in the area, though I personally didn’t get much of anything worth sharing from today.

So instead, we called it quits early and got our hotel for the night. I was able to get my video of the tornado and funnel cloud from the 19th edited and uploaded:

I will try to work on the video from the 18th when I can, but I have about three hours worth of footage to look through, so it will take me awhile to get it all edited together.
