Tour 4 guests finally had a chase day with decent severe weather prospects. Shear was just enough for rotating updrafts, instability was moderate and dew points rather so-so. Thus, tornadoes were not expected due to high storm bases.
We started out with some weak stuff near Wayside, then observed a cell with decent structure near Tulia. A new storm had us blasting south a little, and we played with a fun supercell near Crosbyton. This thing spun up a weak and dusty tornado nearby.
