Live Blog – 29 May 2008 (5:58pm)

Each team is now monitoring at least 8 threats each, multiple tornadoes have been reported in both locations (NE and KS) and shown on live chaser cams. (So much is going on I’m having problems keeping up with the activities of both teams at this point.)

Dinner activities are beginning and the forecasters plan on switching jobs for the remainder of the evening.

With the storms tracking over each other, the probwarn swaths have overlapped. Patrick notes that some locations may have a high prob now and then a lower prob again later… gives knowledge that multiple storms will be affecting the area.

Team 2 is monitoring 3 separate tornado areas (two on one storm)–all with reported tornadoes, one currently visible on chaser cam.

Team 1 had a wind warning that was much larger than they had originally intended, updated to change size, about 2 min of larger size than intended.
