26th April 2011
High risk event prior to the high risk in Alabama. We chased about 11 mesocyclones dropping from one to the next. I lost count of the number of hooks produced on this day!
First hook echo region:
Hook region to our east
The TV crew with Tim Samaras
New hook region separating from main storm to the east
Occulsion and rope-out
Next supercell south
next supercell base to the west
Next supercell south
Looking at a hook region at night
Lightning from these cells were powerful and dangerous
