0900 CDT: Yesterday's chase didn't produce any tornadoes for us, but at least we had a proper chase and got to see some structure. (See some pictures HERE.) We still have a couple of days to chase before we have to head back to Norman, OK to drop off the Tour 1 folks and pick up the Tour 2 folks, so we're not giving up yet!

Here's the travel map for yesterday:

...and here are the SPC graphics for today and tomorrow:

1130 CDT: We're leaving Pratt, KS, initially targeting Wichita, KS... or perhaps just a bit north of there.

1137 CDT: Abort! Abort! Change of plan... The latest forecast just came out, and now we're headed right back to Pratt. U-turn!!!

1600 CDT: We're tracking a cell east of Greensburg, KS... along with about a million other chasers.
