1993-2000 assorted chase images
No records kept until 2000, so much missing from 1993-1999!
1998
October 4, 1998 chase across northern and central Oklahoma. This day was a huge outbreak day. I managed to miss all of the daytime tornados, yet saw a nighttime tornado hitting Moore. (briefly saw the tornado and mainly saw power flashes). I didn't have a video camera with me at the time.
October 2, 1998 chase took me down to Archer County Texas where I watched yet another non-tornadic severe storm
June 9, 1998 I was in Texas waiting for the funeral. Watched a severe storm in Wichita County, TX that went on to cause hail damage at Sheppard A.F.B.
June 8, 1998 The day of my father's death. I watched some storms on the way to Texas.
May 24, 1998 Chased with Robert. Storms didn't get going:
The only picture I've found of my chase vehicle in 1998 and 1999.
1997 (probably only about 5 chases)
May 26, 1997 Chase My view of the supercell to the south as I left Norman after work:
Another storm picture of interest-Unknown date 1997
1996
May 26, 1996 chase to a huge wallcloud near southwest OKC. I don't have any pictures it seems
May 14, 1996 chase watching some SW Oklahoma storms that don't seem to have done anything.
April 21, 1996 chase to southwest of W.Falls. A persistent high based lowering..but no tornados
Some radar images of this storm. Note the strong shear in the velocity image.
April 12, 1996 chase was a W.Falls area morning hailstorm
April 3, 1996 chase was to watch nighttime lightning
1995
July 23, 1995 -Walters, OK tornado. Christina Walker and I watch a brief tornado from I-44.
June 9, 1995 -Vernon, TX tornado...we were not in position to see it.
June 3, 1995 -Altus area supercell...Robert and I attempted to intercept a storm approaching Altus around dark and got run over by it instead. We were stuck in zero visibility rain for some time. Also, a reported tornado near Altus was not visible due to our bad positioning. A radar image at 9:43 P.M CDT showing our approximate position at that time:
May 7, 1995 -Ardmore tornado...but Robert and Iwere way too late getting there due to bad decision making.
April 19, 1995 -Day of the OKC bombing. I chased that day. No idea where or if I saw anything.
April 17, 1995 chase-saw a tornado-like feature near Vernon, TX, drove into a flooded road, and chased the supercell back and missed the tornado near Comanche, OK.
And a radar image from 5:28P.M., about the time of the second picture. Obviously the storm got away from me when it crossed the Red River northeast of Vernon.
