Rainbow, TX
This was my first successful chase with my first VHS camcorder. After hearing reports of tornadoes near Glen Rose, Tx. I headed southwest on hwy 67 to intercept. As I topped the hill just before the Brazos river I saw a nice cone on the ground. The condensation funnel lifted and then touched down again briefly, moving east as I looked southwest. A new meso formed to my west with wrapping rain curtains. Then as the contrast improved another tornado appeared, already being pushed out toward me by the RFD. This snake becomes horizontal as it wraps back into a new wall-cloud. After moving a bit northeast on hwy 67 a new wall-cloud and funnel appear.

After leaving one HP storm at Greenville, Tx. I headed southwest on hwy 34 for another HP supercell moving out of Dallas county. southwest of Quinlan I found myself right in it's slot. The wall-cloud stated to rotate as it moved just to my north. Luckily I only encountering golf-ball hail and a few dings to remember it by.
