Vortex2

So, went home to the rents house today in western nebrasky.

On the way like 50 trucks/vans passed me all carrying gear that looked like it was from the movie 'twister.' I immediately thought of storm chasers, and this was before I had heard there was a tornado warning.

Turns out it was the Vortex2 (most expensive tornado studying project in history) team tracking this tornado that was on the ground like 20 some miles west of here in Goshen county WY.

They had it live on the weather channel with some great footage including a sweet shot of the inside of the tornado.

Storms still moving directly this way, ima go back outside and see if I can see anything.
