Grant Leighty (Kansas City, MO) 12-May-20 11:13 PM

I love chasing in my old back yard!

Jonathan Jarvis(Springfield, MO) 13-May-20 08:22 AM

I think I'm gonna throw my hat in the ring for this one as well. Too close not to!

Drake Anthony (Peoria, IL) 13-May-20 09:53 AM

I'm in as well! Mother nature owes me a good local chase after what happened March 28

Ed Tierney (Des Plaines, IL) 13-May-20 09:59 AM

Peoria technically did get a tornado after dark on 3/28

Though I think it was north of the city

Drake Anthony (Peoria, IL) 13-May-20 12:33 PM

I was just 5 miles away from the tornado but it was impossible to see from my perspective. it was on the back side of a squall line

Jake Wallentine (Wichita, KS) 13-May-20 12:36 PM

Jacob Punch (Kansas City) 13-May-20 07:07 PM

Oh yay HRRR says supercells right over

my house

Vince Waelti (Rockford, IL) 13-May-20 08:56 PM

0z hrrr=meh

Glen Heinz (Greenville, SC) 13-May-20 11:08 PM

Okay there are boundaries i think left over. See if anything uses it.

Jacob Punch (Kansas City) 14-May-20 12:25 AM

For me, 0z HRRR is pretty nice. Looks like a storm that’s gonna take sorta the linwood track, but that always seems to be the case around here

Storm pops around Ponoma KS, tracks ENE and then moves up to the kansas speedway

Jacob Punch (Kansas City) 14-May-20 01:09 AM

B. Dean Berry (Pittsburgh PA) ✱ 14-May-20 09:42 AM

Potential for hyperlocal shelfie boii today? I'll take it!

Jonathan G (Canton, OH) 14-May-20 11:29 AM

I’ll be chasing in E KS today

Ed Tierney (Des Plaines, IL) 14-May-20 11:36 AM

I'll be chasing from home due to work and not getting out into Iowa in time for potential initiation

Jacob Punch (Kansas City) 14-May-20 11:37 AM

I’m staying put in Overland Park until I see anything really interesting

Ed Tierney (Des Plaines, IL) 14-May-20 11:37 AM

May as well prep myself for the monsoon that could happen tonight

Jacob Melton (Owosso, MI) 14-May-20 11:40 AM

Ed Tierney (Des Plaines, IL) 14-May-20 11:46 AM

Yuck, MRGL for me. Means messy storms but hoping for good lightning

I shall prep the flood boats

B. Dean Berry (Pittsburgh PA) ✱ 14-May-20 12:05 PM

@Jacob Punch (Kansas City) - Send me a pic of Sprint HQ!

Jacob Punch (Kansas City) 14-May-20 12:11 PM

haha It’s right down the street from me. I will if I get the chance to chase or leave my house

Drake Anthony (Peoria, IL) 14-May-20 12:37 PM

I'll be chasing fairly locally today. Still cloudy from the early rain here but it looks like the clearing is already starting

Jonathan Jarvis(Springfield, MO) 14-May-20 01:22 PM

Near Fort Scott, KS right now. We'll see what happens

Payton (Lawrence, KS) 14-May-20 02:51 PM

Waiting for things to pop off. Hopefully it'll be soon

Jacob Punch (Kansas City) 14-May-20 03:53 PM

I’m still at home in Overland Park. Waiting for that boundary to start popping storms in a few hours. No need to reposition until anything happens

Jonathan G (Canton, OH) 14-May-20 04:09 PM

I bailed on KS and stuck with W OK and I am probably going to regret that soon

Jacob Melton (Owosso, MI) 14-May-20 04:24 PM

SVA #182 issued

Grant Leighty (Kansas City, MO) 14-May-20 04:32 PM

Payton (Lawrence, KS) 14-May-20 04:36 PM

storms trying to fire to my east

Mark Jack (Westmoreland, KS) 14-May-20 06:39 PM

Emporia still looking good?

Jake Wallentine (Wichita, KS) 14-May-20 06:40 PM

Probably still producing some small hail north of town on the turnpike.

Mark Jack (Westmoreland, KS) 14-May-20 06:42 PM

I'm heading south towards Topeka now. If it still looks promising I'll keep heading south.

Jake Wallentine (Wichita, KS) 14-May-20 06:54 PM

Darin Brunin just went live on fb and it has an awesome LP structure to it. Nice little meso and everything.

Good luck.

Payton (Lawrence, KS) 14-May-20 06:56 PM

Sitting in Osage City trying to decide whether to wait for it to come to me or head towards the storm

Mark Jack (Westmoreland, KS) 14-May-20 06:57 PM

South of Topeka now heading your way @Payton (Lawrence, KS)

Payton (Lawrence, KS) 14-May-20 07:22 PM

Haleigh Knowlton (Omaha, NE) 14-May-20 07:23 PM

Jacob Punch (Kansas City) 14-May-20 07:29 PM

Drake Anthony (Peoria, IL) 14-May-20 07:42 PM

Near Chillicothe IL

Jacob Punch (Kansas City) 14-May-20 07:46 PM
