May 22nd Ness, Trego and Ellis Counties Kansas

Initiation south of WaKeeney, KS

The first cell begins to develop a very round base as it becomes tornado warned

A strong wall cloud develops

Funnel begins to drop from video grab...or is it?

No funnel, it's the tail cloud viewed from the south/southeast

Tim takes in the views and sounds of the new split

Beautiful structure on this cell.  I wish I had a 10mm lens!

Cullen and I having a great time in the strong inflow...and blowing dirt!

Hail falls as we continue to keep close tabs on the cyclic cell

The horses were willing to pose with the wall cloud in the back

The southern storm tries one last time as the wall cloud becomes occluded

Tornado warned storm moving directly over Hays, KS.  Cullen, Tim, and myself could hear the sirens.  Very spooky.
