The unstoppable German Shepherd! Well i need to get the last three chases worth of photos on FA. I have video up on youtube of this weeks chase in Lawton, ok. We intercepted two tornadoes. We drove through one of them just South of the Goodyear plant on the west side of Lawton. S of Lee blvd on Goodyear Blvd. heres the link to the video.

We saw lots of wallclouds and funnels but only a hand full of tornadoes. The storms just couldn't seem to break the cap and basically rode along the 700Mb layer. Had the cloud cover burned off quicker it would have been alot worse than it was. Another issue was seeding. The storms fired to close to each other and as the lead storms would try to turn right they would get ingested by the secondary storm and in the process it was seeding the secondary storm.
