Storm chase on two different storm cells in the Texas Panhandle. The first storm intercept was about 4 miles west of Channing, TX. I observed a high precipitation supercell with a non-rotating wall cloud.
The second storm intercept was in Dimmitt, TX. I observed a rather ominous wall cloud with an inflow tail, and later a very brief tornado with no condensation funnel.
Be sure to watch at 1080p, the entire video is hi-def. Visit my website and read this chase log for more details of the chase:
