May 13 Magic

* A great day for the storm chase team today. We set up in Ponca City and watched storms initiate about 30 miles west of us. We intercepted them early and watched them transition from a high based hailer to a surface based supercell and were fortunate enough to intercept a tornado for roughly 10 minutes. We followed the storm for another hour watching it try to produce tornadoes the whole time. Eventually we left the storm and headed back to Ponca City for the evening. Click through the first pictures below but be sure to check back tomorrow and Friday as we'll add many more to the blog...
