After Sundays run in with some hail damaging the car we were somewhat limited to West Kansas as our target region. Fortunately there was a good probability of isolated super cells within reach so we had some time to kill in Garden City where discovered a genuinely excellent and free! Zoo. The perfect setting for Dan to celebrate his 35th Birthday!


By around 2pm it was time to head back out and try to find some storms!
With a damaged wind screen we played it very cautiously so although we caught several storms before they formed into a line over Kansas we maintained a safe distance.




Staying out of the chaos meant we did have the opportunity to take in some atmospheric vista’s over Kansas.



With a new windshield on the car today we should be back at it as we search for that elusive tornado.
Thanks for posting and am glad to hear that you are back in the swing. Must admit I never thought a rhinoceros would feature on your storm chasing blog …let alone a giraffe!
