Chasecation 2013 Day 2 – Two tornado days in Kansas

We have spent the first two days of our chase trip nabbing tornadoes in Kansas. The storm on the 18th produced two or three tornadoes that we watched develop, mature and dissipate. Day two of our chasecation brought a brief needle tornado near South Haven, Kansas. Below are some screen grabs from the video I took (I have hours of footage from the 18th to go through). I will post some stuff from Ian and possibly James later on.
