03-28 Storms

Well as figured the line of supercells did merge into a squall line event.. and was in its weakening stage when it got to our area a little after 11 pm. It did have heavy rain and some gusty winds up to around 45 50 mph and some lightning. Within 2 hours of the storm passage temps dropped from mid 60's into the mid 40's... Was an ok second storm of the season... we need better...

And i will mention this is the first time in about 8-9 yrs that we have been approached by the police while out spotting. At least he was very cool about it. And... The fact that i accidentally locked us in the back of the truck when i went to shut the hatch cuz of the rain coming in OOPS.. It was the wind... really....

One other note: Got to meet Mark and Suzie as they came back up north from chasing along the gulf..They had some cool vid of intense lightning.... It was great meeting you guys and we definatly gotta do some runs together
