Episode narrativeepisode_narrativeEarly in the afternoon of the 17th, one supercell tracked across extreme southwest Benson county, down through western Eddy county, and into Griggs county. This cell maintained a very slow southeast movement along its entire track. The supercell fed off an extremely unstable atmosphere, with surface temperatures in the 80s and 90s and dew point readings in the mid to upper 70s. By late afternoon into the early evening, more storms broke out along and south of the Interstate 94 corridor.
Event narrativeevent_narrativeA sequence of two short lived funnels was viewed from near Wheatland. The funnels appeared to come down about one-third of the way from the cloud and then go back up again. From this distance, these funnels likely produced the brief tornado touchdown three miles south of Ayr.
