Spring Training Chase Log March 7, 2009

Ah . . . spring.

NOAA had advised against some nasty weather occuring today.

Around 4pm, they were spotting twisters (weak lived quick spin up tornados) outside of Hutchinson. I ran up I-135 to Newton went west about 10 miles.

A few more wall clouds spawned over Hesston, but no funnels were produced.

Discovery

These guys are going to be on discovery's Storm Chaser series.

I've got respect for these guys, but they also scare the hell out of me.

Kind of a "Jackass" Storm Chaser special.

I've touted http://www.tornadovideos.net/ for a couple of years and I'm glad to see them get exposure.

Reed if by any strange twist of fate you read this, you got a fan in Wichita.
