Hello everyone, here’s a quick update regarding the social media and chapter changes.

Day 11 of the 2024 @PennWestUniv Storm Intercept. Today the team caught up to a supercell along the Oklahoma/Texas border. This storm produced several tornadoes though we didn’t get a chance to see them. The gust front kicked up a lot of dust!

The @PennWestUniv Storm Intercept Team saw two (possibly 3) tornadoes near Corning, IA. These photos are of the second tornado.
