Summary – 22 May 2008

There was an HP Supercell event in Western Oklahoma, outside the PAR domain, but we worked it anyway to try to get the forecasters a real-time PAR event.

Otherwise, there was a cluster supercell outbreak in Central KS along I-70 as advertised by the SPC MODT Risk. Since we had the storm in Central Oklahoma, we did not work a ProbWarn IOP on the KS storms. Many storm chasers saw many fast-moving tornadoes.

A repeat performance is expected over KS and NW OK on Friday 23 May, however, we do not conduct operations on Fridays.  In fact, it looks quite active through 26 May, the Memorial Day Weekend, but we are off for the holiday.
