We are targeting southern Oklahoma today for what might be our third tornado day in a row. It is quite the feat to get tornadoes three days in a row, so we are keeping expectations low but still hoping for the best. Yesterday we ended up catching a funnel cloud that was on a separate storm (seen below) from the tornado that I posted a picture of earlier.
Ian posted a number of pictures from the first two days to the Capital Weather Gang.
Here’s some more images from our first two chase days from Ian and James:
