With moisture continuing to creep into the area, the chances for widespread severe weather are looking more favorable. While large hail will likely be the main threat, tornadoes will also be possible, especially after sunset, given the high shear that is forecast to be in place. Multiple teams are in the field streaming this event, so be sure to follow along by clicking the Live Video tab. Stay tuned for updates!

Ben Holcomb and Wes Luginbyhl are in great position right now. Wes may have had a tornado on his cam a while ago. They are in a poor data area so the streams are not continuous, but several guys are on the tornado-warned storm near Tulia.

Heidi how long ago did Wes have that? Look at mesosearch's team INSAINE!!!!!

Quoting Caleb:
was'nt Reed and Joel there like 2 years ago at this time?


----------------------------------------
April 21, 2007: The Tulia tornado's damage path was approximately fifteen block large area through the city. Initial reports state that over 20 business received major damage. Residential areas and a trailer park received minor damage.

----------------------------------------
This is pretty eerie.

BTW, I'm in Amarillo and watching all of this head this way. It's exciting on one hand and a little scary on the other.

Well apparently Brady's windshield got smashed by some hail. This isn't good. 4 tornado warnings right now. One just narrowly missed Lubbock.

I must have been in at least 10 Tornado Warnings today. Coming down from Michigan on Tuesday night and Wednesday, today was a fun chase. A lot of flooding, a lot of hail. It's storming again as I type this here at my motel room. Much needed rain for West Texas, and much needed moisture.

Yeah David what happened? I tuned into your stream at one point and just saw flashing lights on the side of the road while you were stationary. At first I thought you got pulled over for driving like a madman, but then realized the lights were orange and yellow
