A favorable weather pattern for severe weather on the Southern Plains continued. \u00a0A surface low was near Lubbock, and moist air (mid 60s dews) was pouring into southwestern Oklahoma, where SPC showed an enhanced slight risk and 10 percent tornado risk. \u00a0It appeared that the triple-point play a little south of Childress would work. \u00a0We made our way out of Lubbock, stopped in Dickens for lunch, and soon had storm towers headed towards Matador. \u00a0A supercell took shape and swept through Matador. \u00a0We viewed a wall cloud and avoided hail in Matador, and watched an action area pull off to our northeast. \u00a0We scooted east to Paducah and then to Quanah to try to stay with it. \u00a0The supercell was a big and nasty HP (high-precipitation) supercell by now. \u00a0It reportedly produced a brief tornado between Childress and Paducah, but I had opted for the northeast route out of Paducah instead of 83 north in order to stay with the storm.<\/p>\n
