It's Been a Slow Start

Weather has been fickle.  Here we are on April 14, and really only one marginal severe thunderstorm warning that crashed and burned slowly after being issued.  Last week came a group of storms that woke everyone up, then turned to sleet and ice.






































We are still in the clutches of a winter that won't go away, but everything is starting to turn green.  Storms are expected today in front of a cold front, we will see what happens.

Ice and Lightning

The first big stormy week of chase season was a bust. Storms either didn't show up or turned into ice spewing monsters. The following photos were taken today in the Wichita area after a half inch glaze.

From the Other Side of the Planet


Severe Thunderstorm Warning in Lashkar Gah, Afghanistan.  Tomorrow?  Maybe some local pictures.



Not sure what this is.  But if it was a funnel, I doubt the group of four would be gazing at it like it was in Kansas.

Dark Matter?

Some days, I thought about changing the blog's name to Head in the Clouds, Mind's out in Space.  Storms will be here soon, my friends.
