Chase #7 Evaluation
See the website for a full chase log and photos.
Long story short, intercepted HP supercell near the Oklahoma City State Capitol and successfully streamed hail footage to KSBI (dime- to quarter-size hail falling). I even got on air (speaking about the hail) for the first time.
We later got on an LP supercell southeast of El Reno (we were sitting just a few miles east of Newcastle and west of north Norman / south Moore). This beauty had a high base and a stacked plate appearance as it slowly rotated. Eventually the cloud base eroded and we headed back to Norman.
Not bad for a 3-hour, 80-mile chase: HP supercell with hail and lightning, and LP supercell with amazing structure!
