A rather uneventful day. With the prospect of supercell storms in the Texas panhandle… I drove west. Widespread, elevated morning convection was located over western Oklahoma. These storms produced cool outflow that moved westward into the panhandle. It became clear as I drove that this would have a big impact on the severe potential – pushing the area of interest southward toward Lubbock. This was farther than I wanted to drive on the day chase and I turned around near Elk City and returned home. The gallery contains some “less than spectacular” lightning shots around Okarche later in the evening.
