Blogs take too much time.....

Well, we're back in England!

No tornados to report but we saw everything but. I think we're going to do it again but not for a few years, it wasn't the cheapest of trips, close to 3.5k each all in!

A brief summary then, I'll blog when I have uploaded pics and edited a video...

We punched the core of a supercell in the final few days and were subjected to golf ball size hail. This was immense, the sound was so loud, we were on a freeway and all the cars were stopping or trying to get in the underpass to save their cars, we just punched on not worrying about the dents - there's already enough on the vans.

We stood right under a rotating funnel cloud essentially watching the formation of a tornado - but it was too weak to build up enough to touch down but was still really eery. I have some good video footage of this.

We saw massive lightning shows, and a supercell that was that nice looking it was like you were looking at a painting.

We travelled over four and a half thousand miles, covering the following states (might have missed some, i'm waiting for the gps bookmarked file from Stuart):

Oklahoma
Kansas
Nebraska
Colorado
Wyoming
Texas
New Mexico - and crossed the border into actual swine flu Mexico for a brief period.

We made some great friends and all in all had a great time, just saw no bloody tornados! :o)

Apologies for not updating the blog near the end, we had some really long chase days, one was 800 miles in a day, so by the end of a day I had just enough energy to have a few drinks then go to sleep not finding the time to blog. Although I'm sure I would have updated had I saw a tornado!

Mark -done!
