June 16, 2008: Hobart, Oklahoma Stacked Supercell

A surprise day in Southwest Oklahoma. We were not expecting much in terms of tornadic supercells, but we ended up with several intense storms. Our favorite was a stacked supercell near Hobart that possibly produced a brief tornado. Today had good moisture, instability and moderate shear that was somewhat weak at low-levels. A dryline provided the trigger that would fire the storms for the day. We intercepted three tornadoes warned storms in total, with one likely rain-wrapped tornado.
