Posted: Sun Apr 15, 2012 6:30 am Post subject: Oklahoma/Kansas Storms last night

Yesterday, the National Weather Service was predicting atmospheric

conditions for extra-ordinary convective activity over the

central US.



Dr. Dee and I had driven a group of her students to

a conference in Oklahoma City which ended Friday.

We decided to come home earlier than planned. Norman,

OK got hit Friday Night. Dr. Dee stayed with the family

in Wichita. I took the students home to Lindsborg and

returned to Medicine Lodge.



The trip from Lindsborg to M.L. was right down the middle

of two lines of storms that were moving parallel to my

ground track! Didn't get a drop of rain on two hour trip

home.



Around 10 p.m. last night, a tornado formed that

followed almost exactly the same track as the storm that

devastated Andover, KS in 1991. This one did some damage

to McConnell AFB/Boeing facilities, Hawker Beechcraft,

and many residential areas.

I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to contact a close

associate who still works for HBC and lives in a house at the

n.e. corner of a mobile home park across the street from

HBC's Plant IV.



Our house was several miles to the north and sustained

only straight winds damage to some shingles and flashing.



Some strong cells moved over the Medicine Lodge area several

hours apart but I've not heard any reports of tornadic activity

from those storms. Except for Doug's whereabouts and welfare,

all those close to us are confirmed to be okay.



Our neighbors in Tornado Alley have got some heavy hauling

and rebuilding to do.
