Above are a couple of screen captures from the tornado streamed by David Drummond and Ben Holcomb at about 6:15 PM; below is the base reflectivity radar presentation from the same time. The tornado was located near Cedar Hill, TX, and the responsible supercell continues to look very impressive on radar. Several teams of chasers are on the storm right now, including TVN, so be sure to check back often for more updates, and later, video! 04.29.09.drummondholcombcell 

 

UPDATE: I talked to Ben and he says there were TWO tornadoes, one on either side of them, and that they were less than 100 yards away!!

Verne Carlson is also streaming from Garden City, KS and has had some INSANE hail footage; his storm is currently tornado warned!

UPDATE!: Verne Carlson just streamed a HUGE landspout with multiple vortices (~7:40PM)

TVN Myspace is reporting that they've intercepted 2 tornadoes NE of Lubbock.
Idk, who runs the TVN myspace though, so it could have been anyone who posted that lol.

I saw Drummond/Holcomb as towers were going up, then checked back later and was suprised to see the tornadoes! I thought they were pretty close, I cringed after I saw the road conditions + other chasers hopelessly stuck. Here I am making an armchair chase report LOL... Well hopefully storms could be a little more north around the 10th of may.
