You're Ricky Bobby. Don't you have a backup car in the trailer?

:lol:

I despise NASCAR, that's why I got a kick out of that movie. NASCAR is like professional wresting, only with internal combustion engines and four wheels. :lol:

Anyways, I know you weather guys are really into this stuff, so I'll kill off my mini-highjack now. :D

This event is looking more and more like a bust for tornadoes (at least strong ones) every second. The main upper level support is finally swinging in from the west. This is the last chance for a major upgrade/eruption of thunderstorms for the area. If it doesn't happen soon, then this appears to be a wind/hail event.

Big freakin' surprise.

South end of storms have died off. These things better get to developing.

I'm not sure one exists.

RS: You got some baseball hail coming in. :(

[RoyalShock]

We just had a few quarter-size pieces fall and the hail appears to be over, in Hutch anyway. It's probably hitting Buhler right about now.

That's about as good as it gets. Though it still runs about 8-10 minutes behind real-time.

We had larger than golfball size here in Buhler about 30 or so minutes ago. :cry:

My front yard looks lik a mushroom field.

Wussy weather. Massive tornado outbreak hasnt happened.

I love how they cancelled classes at most schools around the area because there is a threat of tornadoes tonight. This is Kansas, in the spring, isn't there a threat of tornadoes every night?

Normally I'd agree, but considering the amount of "experts" watching it's probably the right thing to do tonight.
