Landed in Wichita for a weeklong chasecation! The setup looks to be…challenging, at least to start, but no doubt there will be opportunities.🌪️ #stormchasing

Just finished @matthewcappucci.bsky.social’s “Looking Up: The True Adventures of a Storm Chasing Weather Nerd” while on my Midwest chasecation. It’s a great, endearing read with a lot of infectious enthusiasm for all things weather. Hope to run into you chasing one day, Matt!

Sadly missed out on a good shot while stuck in traffic, but managed this at least. The first tornado I had ever seen, and one of two I got to see that day!

David Oxley ⛈️ 🌪️ @wxdox.com · 16/11/2024

And I was so close to migrating my X posts to Bluesky via @en.blueark.app before the end of the week…alas. Looks like I’m stuck there for a bit longer.

The closest I got today: a picture of the wall cloud forming on the back of the Leesburg cell that eventually spawned the Poolesville tornado. Went tornado-warned four minutes later before crossing the Potomac. #vawx

David Oxley ⛈️ 🌪️ @wxdox.com · 27/05/2024

And just like that - northern part of the EDS severe warning is now tornado-warned. #vawx

David Oxley ⛈️ 🌪️ @wxdox.com · 27/05/2024

Something you don’t see every day in these parts: “Extremely Dangerous Situation” Severe Thunderstorm Warning for Madison and Culpeper VA. 70+ mph winds and up to 1 inch hail. #vawx

Last chance to see some spinning clouds this week before heading back to Virginia. Just let them be over open, unoccupied terrain. 🤞🏻

Want to see it in action? Here’s a demo. You can also run the Shortcut manually (add it to your home screen, etc.) and not share a photo to it, just text. (3/4)

Video frame grab of yesterday’s funnel near Ringwood, OK. Like most of the daytime storms, it just didn’t quite make it down. #okwx

The only correct answer is “an example of why NWS offices aren’t taking Spotter Network reports seriously anymore.” #stormchasing

No tornado warnings on these cells that have spotter tornado reports in Kansas yet? 🤨 #kswx

KLWX, down for upgrades and in the middle of a Severe Thunderstorm Watch box. Going to be hopping a lot between KFCX, KDOX, and the airport radars to try and keep up today. 😬

So long, Midwest! Until next year, or a particularly inviting setup that lures me out sooner. 😅
