And finally something to chase. It was nothing spectacular but after five days of sun and fun it was time to get back to business.
There was scope for some marginally severe and quite picturesque storms up on the Oklahoma/Kansas border and we were well positioned in Oklahoma City to get there in plenty of time.
On our way we sampled the absolutely delightful County museum in Pratt, Kansas, and drove through the town of Greensburg, devastated by the EF5 tornado on 4 May 2007. As we approached Meade, we darted south to catch the hugely photogenic storms as they rolled through. There was nothing severe to speak of due to the high base of the storm, but we did see what is quite a rarity in the US – a cyclonic Supercell, that had split from one to its south.
We ended the day in Liberal, Kansas, the self-proclaimed home of the Wizard of Oz, and with the museum to prove it.
