4/2/2014 Southeast Kansas Severe Thunderstorm B-roll

South East Kansas was in a slight risk area the afternoon and evening of Wednesday, April 2, 2014 which lead to a tornado watch for the later evening through 10pm. The first storm to initiate and become severe thunderstorm warned was in Neosho County, Kansas. This storm produced up to ping pong ball size hail. There was a lot of rain associated with is storm and at times visibility was less than a quarter mile. I drove through the core of the storm and ended up on another storm in Allen County. This storm produced heavy rains as well. I ended up doing a loop up Highway 160 to Highway 59 and went through another hail core and heavy rains on the same storm that was around Chanute in Neosho County. On the drive back to Kansas City on Highway 69 North the same storm had crossed into Linn County with torrential rains.
