1st Severe Storms of the Season
So we actually had an introduction to storm season before March 1st. Scattered storms developed over the area Sunday afternoon and rolled east, with one storm even producing a tornado near the Kansas/Oklahoma state line. The tornado didn't do any damage, thank goodness, but it did provide for some nice pictures that were taken by viewers and chasers in the area.
One other interesting feature that was viewable from space was blowing dust and smoke across west Texas and eastern New Mexico. Those areas are very dry and with such strong wind and low humidity Sunday afternoon, it wasn't a surprise. This type of setup will more than likely repeat many more times this spring, which usually help ignite big storms and severe weather outbreaks across Tornado Alley.
