31 May 2022 – Western Oklahoma Supercells

The last chase of the 2022 season was a fairly short trip into western Oklahoma.  The atmosphere was very unstable southeast of a slow moving front that extended from eastern Kansas into the Texas Panhandle.  While no tornadoes were reported in Oklahoma, supercell storms – producing very large hail and damaging winds – formed over the west central and southwest parts of the state and moved slowly toward central Oklahoma.  Our trip took us through Fay and Thomas to west of Clinton where we started sampling storms, following them back toward Canadian County.
