Incredible day today! Probably the best yet so far as getting close to seeing a tornado drop. Was positioned perfectly between 2 storms. The one to the south of me, which had a tornado warning on it, was going to pass by me just the right way so I would be able to see the funnel cloud. The one to the west of me was headed straight for me. This one looked perfect and ready to drop a tornado… actually can’t believe it didn’t!

Needless to say, neither produced but I had a blast relaxing and waiting for the storms to come my way.

Miles: 665
