Tracked a Colorado supercell for nearly five hours from Byers to Burlington and documented two brief tornadoes and plenty of hail!

Left multiple tornadic storms early due to insane chaser traffic and missed multiple brief tornadoes, eventually took on 80mph winds in Wamego, Kansas.

Intercepted the St. Libory tornado, albeit with brief glimpses in horrendous traffic, but had amazing photography opportunities around sunset near Lincoln, Nebraska.

A messy setup yielded a cluster of heavy hailers and outflow dominated storms with intense wind-driven rain and crazy positive strike lightning across southwest Iowa.

After intercepting a low-end severe storm near the CO/NE/KS border area, I would backtrack to intercept a beastly line of storms near Yuma with a funnel, hail, and awesome lightning!

Big bust day; left the Kansas storms too late to get on the Oklahoma tornadoes, and left those same storms too EARLY and missed the landspouts that dropped along the front.

Documented a pair of tornadoes out of a single supercell in southern Minnesota, including a very slender, fully condensed tornado outside Truman.

Played the Illinois warm front and intercepted a wicked looking monster HP supercell that put on a visual show despite missing a weak, brief tornado on the storm to our east.

Documented a couple brief, weak tornadoes in eastern Iowa, then jumped to more storms in Illinois that dropped some sub-severe hail, but awesome sunset mammatus.

Chased a couple clustered supercells across northern Oklahoma from Enid to Perry, but too many storms in an uncapped setup lead to a few marginally severe storms that ultimately yielded nothing more than a few scary looking clouds.

On the board with the first tornadoes of the season, but this chase will forever be known for the Illinois record-breaking hail over 5" in diameter, largest hail I have ever seen! And the best single lightning clip I've ever shot!

Went with the secondary northeast Kansas target over the primary Oklahoma target for better terrain/road options, but storms that fired were too quickly undercut and resulted in a bust along I-70.

Hoped for pre-sunset supercells in northwest Texas, but the cells that did form didn't strengthen til dark, where I would test the hail core of one near Memphis before calling it a night.

My 30th season kicks off with a supercell-filled day across southeast Illinois that ended in a blizzard of hail and an almost tornado near the Wabash River.
