Walt, Eric and Gene left Cordell, OK shortly after 1:00 pm CDT initially to check out the position of the frontal boundary laying SW to NE across the body of the state and to take a look at storms developing on the cool side of that boundary. We found the frontal boundary along US 183 between Rocky and Hobart, its position made obvious by the sudden condensation on the car windows when we crossed it. Not long after a tornado watch was issued and we elected to continue on toward Synder or points south of there. While on the way, an elevated supercell developed above the cooler air behind the front near Roosevelt and was quickly severe-warned. At the same time a warm-sector storm was organizing in the Vernon, TX area just S of the Red River so we continued on to Frederick and Davidson, eventually positioning on CR 2150 in Tillman County to wait on it. Jason was about 30 minutes behind the rest of the team and met the storm as it approached US 183 near Frederick. The storm developed a rather large, very low-hanging wall-cloud as it became severe warned, but only was able manage a few transient, ragged funnel-clouds.
View of the wall-cloud from Jason's perspective on US 183 at about 3:48 CDT:
