It was very overcast and there was a lot of precipitation falling around so once we were under the storm, we had some difficulty deciding where to go.
We hit Wellington and then decided to head East into Winfield. We waiting a while in Winfield hoping the storm would figure out what it wanted to do.

Couldn't tell what the cloud in the center was trying to do, I don't believe it was a funnel.
The wall clouds of this storm didn't survive. The storm seemed like it was attempting to organize but fell short. The wall cloud above did cause the warning for Sumner Co.
We followed up to Oxford, where the radio was claiming the wall cloud was overhead.
It didn't last too long either. We watched as the cloud tried to rebuild and hopscotched to the East.
With the sun going down, we decided to call it off. We found Udall road and headed back. This storm went on to cause a brief tornado in or near the town of Douglass. At this time no one was reported hurt and it was limited damage.
Keep your eyes to the sky tomorrow. Round two is less than 16 hours away. They are predicting a major outbreak tomorrow. Be prepared.
More pics of this storm, forthcoming.

Looks like you were having a good time. Nice pics and account of the storms.
Love the pics! You should have been around here when the sirens started going off Sunday.
I was around here.
That panoramic pic over the water is beautiful. May I have a copy?
