Fall Break

Sun Oct 14, 2012, 10:41 PM
OH MAN. Two days off of school, this Monday and Tuesday. What am I going to do with myself? :la:

Fall colors are in full swing here in Omaha and it's such a welcome sight. Stuff started turning super early this season thanks to the drought, so it feels like I've been waiting ages for the real colors =D Probably gonna bike to Lake Zorinsky tomorrow to shoot some fall colors/landscapes. If not, I'll drive out into the country or hit up our local creek :nod: Either way, really looking forward to contrasting some vibrant oranges/yellows with the blue sky (with the extra help of a circular polarizer ;)).

Got back from chasing yesterday, which was largely unsuccessful. Targeted south-central Kansas hoping storms would fire and rotate. They didn't. Had some smaller storms go up, but the shear crossover just wasn't in place to make them turn and become supercells. We did end up getting on a small storm around sunset that somewhat resembled a supercell (see below) but that was about it :shrug: Oh well! You win some, you lose some. It was really just nice to get out and be with friends again.

Hey, it's October. I can't really complain!

And on that note, I think I'll edit a few more images for the Devil's Tower account before I head off to bed :) I'll make a journal post when it's up!

That's all I've got for now! How was your weekend? Did you take any photos? :la:

Your chase sounds exactly like how ours went in Amarillo the day before. Oh well, it is October...

Heard a few people caught tornadoes the day before. Oh well, not like they were really photogenic ones so not a big deal. Only spent 40 bucks on the chase split between three people, so at least my wallet doesn't hurt too bad :P

Yeaaaaaah... I've seen a few videos of the 12th but nothing that looks like a tornado. Sure some nice little funnel clouds but the dirt being kicked up by winds on the ground seems to have a clear lack of rotation. :shrug:

Actually, I did take pictures, but then I deleted them. Not nice ones.
