26 April 2011 Chase Summary & Images -- Northern Texas Panhandle (Part 3)
Summary & Images (part 3)
Cloud to ground lightning east of Perryton


Shortly after photographing the structure of the Perryton storm's shelf
cloud, I continued east on a county road about 8 miles south-southwest of
Booker, where I stopped to photograph some of the fairly vivid
cloud-to-ground lightning. As the storm approached, I booked it east to
Road 1265 where the core of the storm overtook me and I received copious
amounts of pea to penny size hail which covered the road about 6 miles south
of Booker. After this was over, I made my way back to Dodge City.
