Panhandle Magic

Caught tornadoes each of the past 3 days in the Texas Panhandle including one yesterday near Dimmit and 4 near Spearman the day before and of course the incredible tornadoes Sunday near Texline. Pics and video coming soon when I have time to catch up. That looks like starting tomorrow as the upper air profiles go to crap.

Today, eying a potential surprise event in the northern panhandle where a robust outflow boundary is making SW progress from ongoing convection around Liberal, KS to Buffalo, OK. With daytime heating, this boundary should slow and stall oriented in a very favorable fashion with weak mid level flow. Even at 20-25 knots, the WNW to NW flow there on top of the SE low level flow should provide adequate shear and excellent directional veering. With the boundary and moderate instability, it is a scenario I love to play.

Will be headed up to either Spearman or Stratford very soon.
