Today is a travel day as there is not expected to be much in the way of weather in our area. We left Amarillo and headed back north into Kansas. A little sightseeing today will put us in good position for a chase on Saturday in northeastern Kansas to southeastern Nebraska. SPC has a 30% area over that region for severe weather on Saturday....
While at a gas stop... we noticed there were severe thunderstorm warnings posted in western Kansas around Dodge City. Well, we can't miss an opportunity to chase a storm, even if we had other plans for the day. So off we went heading west.
It was quite the drive to get there and we were hoping the storm would stay together by the time we got there.
Unfortunately it started to die off, but we did manage to get some nice shots of tower cumulus around Garden City, Kansas.
Then the crème de la crème appeared shortly after as we were heading north. The most beautiful rainbow I have ever seen backdropped with rain and hail falling from a storm over the plains.
We finished the day heading back to Hays, Kansas for the night.
