Evan Bookbinder and I had a fun evening of storm photography across northern Kansas along the Highway 281 corridor around the Osborne, KS area.  At 10:00pm, we experienced an awesome heat burst which rose the temperature to 95 degrees with a 45 degree dewpoint.  Winds were out of the south gusting to around 50 mph at times.  Below are a few photos from this storm chase shoot.
