The first chase of the season took us to the Texas Panhandle where we had low expectations for tornadoes, but thought that well structured supercells were possible.  After hanging near the Claude exit on I-40 for a bit, we started north and stayed with storms  that developed west and southwest of Borger and Stinnett.  Eventually, a beautiful supercell evolved near Spearman.  In addition to the nice structure, we measured 2.31″ hail a few miles southwest of the city.  After sunset, we encountered another severe storm with hail larger than golf ball size in Miami, TX.  A few photos from the day:
