8th June 2012 - Thunderstorm gust front and lightning...

Well yet again we were treated with another sneaky bit of thunderstorm action across southeast Texas this evening...this makes 3 days in a row for me to see lightning (1 in England and 2 in Texas) - so I am feeling pretty good! I have created a Facebook album to link more pictures as it's hard to share them all on here - you can access that by clicking My Storm Chase 2012 Facebook Album...

Here are a few that show what kinda stuff we saw today...












 
Tomorrow I'm not expecting to see lightning for a 4th day in a row...it's more of a travel day coming up. The plan is to get up early from SE Texas and make our way to near Oklahoma City to pick up Pete - and then probably drive into Nebraska to get ready for some chasing action on Sunday. That's potentially about 17 hours of driving coming up on Saturday! Still a little uncertain as to where and how much of a risk thunderstorms will be, but it looks like there will at least be a slight risk of thunderstorms by the SPC on most day from Sunday through the coming week - so hopefully many more pics to come!
