28 May 2019 – El Reno to Ripley, OK Supercell

Towers struggled west of Hennessey, but rapid thunderstorm development started in the Geary area and we returned back south to look at two severe thunderstorms.  The first was just southwest of Okarche when we arrived back in town:

This storm kept our interest for a bit, but it seemed to be having some trouble with precipitation from the next storm south, which was only about 15 miles away.

The storm was moving quickly to the northeast and we approached it again on the south side of Piedmont.  It was producing very large hail on the northwest side of Piedmont and we started zig zagging northeast across northwest Oklahoma County staying clear of the hail core.

Still, we could not see evidence of strong cloud base rotation.

We were northeast of Guthrie when there was a better display of rising motion, but again little in the way of rotation:
