Happy NHL Deadline Day! : An update of events over the weekend

The first storm chase of the season has come and gone. It was a fun, successful trip with a funnel cloud spotted. The storm at one point put down a tornado, but we were not able to catch it. The structure was absolutely incredible.We Started in Blackwell, Ok and end ended up chasing in that same area.

Wall Cloud!

Classic "Mothership" appearance

Just a gorgeous storm.

In addition to this beautiful supercell we got to see fog..two types! We got to see the ever elusive hail fog, which was toIntally awesome I felt like Michael Jackson was about to appear and start moon walking in the middle of the Kaw nation. O ya while in the heat of the moment we decided to enter the Kaw Nation Indian Reservation. The road network was paved and sensible for about 1.5 miles. Then it gradually turned into a muddy road that wound around until we entered into Kansas (unfortunately no welcome to Kansas sign, I felt like a true pioneer).  The entire way from Columbia to Wichita we were in dense fog, at time less than a tenth of a mile.

One important note. One of my friends and I consumed 5 burritos apiece (three breakfast burritos and two taco bell) in about 9 hours. Impressive.

A great day all in all

In other news: 

• Today is the NHL trade deadline. The big question is if my favorite team, the Dallas Stars, will trade Brad Richards. I have a feeling that he will not be traded because he has gone on record numerous times saying that he wants to stay (and he has a no trade clause). I would put money on Richards staying but Dallas makinga couple of smaller moves.
• The Royals are undefeated in Spring Training. Unfortunately Kyle Davies and Melky Cabrera  performed well. A trend that I hope and believe will not continue. 

That's all for now!
