May 1st Chase Seymour Texas

I started the day leaving Fort Worth at 1:45 pm I headed up 35W, met Kris Hair in Gainsville. We headed west, and intercepted the second storm that had fired of the day. We went to Seymour got gas then headed west of town. We stopped a few miles east of Red Springs where we saw a beautiful wall cloud. Got some great pictures, and footage of it. We headed south to avoid the hail (quarter to golfball) we then headed back east as the storm started dying from being under cut from the cold front. We pulled over to the side of the road, and met Steve Miller(OK), Hans Schroeder was finally nice to meet them. We also saw Reed Timmer and his TVN crew with there SRV.

DFW Storms

I went out side when saw some storms where coming, and took these pictures. With a 8 sec delay. Then took the car under the car wash from the hail.. There where reports just west of me of baseball size hail. So I got to the car wash got the last spot, and we had heavy rain Marble to Pea size hail, but just north of us there was tennis to baseball.. So we got lucky we got some very much needed rain.

Panhandle Blizzard / Fake Cows

I left Fort Worth today around 9 am finally got to the panhandle by afternoon to spend the night in Plainview cause of the bad roads up north. Not much snow here atm. I guess Plainview Texas as a unofficial rule that each place of business has to have a Painted cow in front. As I was writing this evening had tons of wind and snow. So I went out got some new pictures.

Rain to ICE to Rain

Today in Fort Worth I headed out this morning to take grandma to her plane. Just as the rain was just changing over to freezeing. Roads weren't that bad because of the warm ground. Saw one bonehead going to fast who had slammed into a guardrail on a curve. Got home it started to freeze on the car, trees, and powerlines. This is a shot from my backyard tree its not that often you see ice in Fort Worth. Just think it was 82 degrees Saturday.
