We will be driving to Medicine Lodge then west and north back to Dodge
City for the night. We photographed some fairly amazing storm
structure when the storm looked really good along Hwy 50 from west of
Spearville to Offerle to Kinsley, KS. Tomorrow (Day 6) doesn’t look
quite as good, however we will consider chasing storms off either the
Raton Mesa or the Palmer Divide.

early evening update… some amazing colors and structure with the HP
supercell we are chasing. Unfortunately, we were in blast-east most
when the tornado was occurring to our northwest, and we were not due
east of it and closer to see it. We did see a laminar cone=-shaped
lowering/wall cloud back in the wet occlusion, but we were unable to
confirm anything. It will be interesting to see other chasers’
images/video of this since we were not positioned well to see the
tornado. We are repositioning south toward Pratt area to catch new
development on the south flank.
